Bug Description
Subiquity could do with some more human-friendly approaches to partition size specifications. It would be nice to be able to say "100%" to use 100% of the available free space, for example. Also, to handle MB, MiB, and other common size terms cleanly. At the same time, it would be helpful to put some examples below the input field, e.g. 120M, 500G

Makes sense. On percentages, it would be least fragile to pass that down to the lowest level tool that can handle them, which means changes to curtin at least.
