[meta-rockchip][PATCH] systemd: repart requires fdisk explicitly

[Trevor Woerner]

According to [1], upstream meson's default configuration policy defaulted
to "auto", meaning that it would search as far and wide as it could
to find things like libraries and header files when deciding which
options to enable during configuration. Apparently that is no longer the
case, therefore new PACKAGECONFIG options have been added to systemd to
explicitly ask for some features.

systemd's repart mechanism needs fdisk, which was probably being found and
used implicitly before, but now needs to be enabled explicitly.

This is being reverted right now as far as I could tell, see 
https://lore.kernel.org/openembedded-core/20250722124120.3281157-1-ross.burton@arm.com/T/#u

So maybe wait a bit for things to stabilize?
