AU: do not copy filesystem during full updates
The filesystem copying stage is redundant during full updates, where the
partition is being entirely overwritten regardless of its previous
content. It is also a very wasteful step, causing intensive I/O and
kernel buffer pressure, and known to (sometimes) cause jank and
otherwise have detrimental effects on our user experience.
This CL eliminates filesystem copying for full updates:
1) The decision is based on whether the Omaha response indicates that
this is a full update.
2) To be safe, we also ensure that the payload manifest does not contain
old partition hashes, which is indicative of a delta update.
Note that it is generally desirable to base the decision solely on #2
above (and ignore #1 altogether). However, this will require more
extensive re-engineering of the update flow, as filesystem copying
currently happens prior to the manifest being downloaded.

TEST=Full and delta updates run correctly on x86-alex
