TUI wizard shows ephemeral overlay as storage — no persistence partition setup #10

Description

@eshork

Symptom

The TUI wizard storage step reports ~8GB available for models. This is the ephemeral overlay (squashfs + tmpfs), not a real persistence partition. On a 500GB USB drive, the remaining ~492GB is unpartitioned and unused. The wizard doesn't offer to create a persistence partition.

Expected Behavior

The wizard should:

  1. Detect that no persistence partition exists
  2. Show the total unpartitioned space available on the boot USB device
  3. Offer to create a persistence partition using that space
  4. Clearly distinguish between ephemeral overlay storage and persistent storage

Relationship

Related to #6 (persistence partition auto-creation). This issue is specifically about the TUI wizard's storage step being misleading and non-functional. #6 covers the underlying partition creation capability.
