This is without effect if no such partition emerges by other settings or
if the partition type is prescribed mandatorily like 0xee for GPT protective

If instead a type_guid is given by a 32-digit hex string like

EBD0A0A2-B9E5-4433-87C0-68B6B72699C7, then it will be used as partition type
if the ISO filesystem appears as partition in GPT.
