   An update that has two recommended fixes can now be
   installed.

Description:

   This update for growpart-rootgrow fixes the following issues:

   - Change the logic to determine the partition ID of the root filesystem
     (bsc#1188179)
     + Previously the algorithm depended on the order of the output from
       lsblk using an index to keep track of the known partitions. The new
       implementation is order independent, it depends on the partition ID
       being numerical in nature and at the end of the device string.

   - Add coverage config. Omit version module from coverage check.

   - Fix string formatting for flake8 formatting.

   - Replace travis testing with GitHub actions. Add ci testing workflow
     action.

   - Switch implementation to use Popen for Python 3.4 compatibility
     (bsc#1165198)

   - Bump version: 1.0.2 → 1.0.3

   - Fixed unit tests and style This clobbers several fixes into one. Sorry
     about it but I started on already made changes done by other people.
     This commit includes several pep8 style fixes mostly on the indentation
     level. In addition it fixes the unit tests to really cover all code and
     to make the exception tests really effective.

   - Switch to use Popen instead of run The run() fuction in the subprocess
     module was implemented after Python 3.4. However, we need to support
     Python 3.4 for SLES 12

   - Bump version: 1.0.1 → 1.0.2

   - Package LICENSE file The LICENSE file is part of the source repo but was
     not packaged with the rpm package
