losetup: properly use --sector-size when create a new device

The --partscan functionality depends on sector size. Make sure
sector size is set before we force kernel to scan the device for
partitions. For example:

 losetup -f loopfile --sector-size 4KiB --partscan --show

where 'loopfile' contains GPT with 4096 sectors.
