The PartitionVector class is now internally using pointers to Partition
objects and taking on management of their lifetimes. It therefore has
to implement the Big 3: destructor, copy constructor and copy assignment
operator [1][2]. This is because the implicitly-defined copy
constructor and assignment operator perform memberwise "shallow copying"
and the destructor does nothing. This not correct for classes which
contain non-class types such as raw pointers.
The semantics of the interface still copies each Partition object into
the PartitionVector when they are added with push_back() and insert().
Note that a PartitionVector object is explicitly copy assigned in
Win_GParted::Refresh_Visual(). They are also implicitly copied when
(1) the implementing vector is resized larger to allow it to hold more
pointers to Partition objects than it previously had capacity for; and
(2) a Partition object is copied including the logicals PartitionVector
member.
