Tmpfs is already disable in GUI on master and this patch
also disables it in GUI on rhel7-branch.
The main issue is, that due to the unique properties
of tmpfs, it doesn't really fit to the current
custom partitioning GUI without big changes.
Some of the issues:
* the GUI can't really handle a filesystem that does not
actually consume any harddrive space
* obviously tmpfs can't reside on RAID or LVM
* there is no way to explicitly create a partition
of a given filesystem type and creating partition with
the default filesystem and changing it to tmpfs seems
wrong
* the same thing for switching a "normal" partition
to tmpfs
So let's disable it for now in the GUI.
It can be reenabled once the GUI can handle it properly.
