Ubiquity creates useless ESR (EFI) partition on Bios system |

Ubuntu 21.04 - 16/4 daily build - Ubiquity 21.04.15
Even on computers with old BIOS an ESR (EFI) partition will be automatically created when installing Ubuntu using one of the automatic options like "Erase disk and install Ubuntu", "Install Ubuntu alongside other system", etc..
This should not happens. No ESR partition should be created.
In this case:
- 2 partition where already existing:
- /dev/sda1 Ext4 with Ubuntu 21.04 already installed
- /dev/sda2 Ext4 empty
I've set just 2 existing primary partition because if the installer doesn't find a primary partition for ESR, installation will fail.... and that's another bug, see bug #1924823
In this case installation will succeed, but just think about all the system on old BIOS that are already using 3 primary partitions and there's no extra primary partition for ESR.. in that case installation fails.
