I simplified the countdown, by moving it into it's own function instead of wrapped inside guided.. This can now be used by others for a simple countdown. I also re-worked the minimal.py example to work with the new internal partitioning logic API as well as support some flags from archinstall.arguments to minimize user input requirements to just one single question. This one question will most likely go away too, but stays for simplicity right now.
