fscryptctl: add support for encrypted and trusted keys
For both v1 and v2 key setup mechanisms, userspace supplies the raw key
material to the kernel after which it is never again disclosed to
userspace. Use of encrypted and trusted keys offers stronger guarantees:
The key material is generated with the kernel and is never disclosed to
userspace in clear text and, in the case of trusted keys, can be directly
rooted to a trust source like a TPM chip.
Support for using encrypted and trusted keys is not yet mainline.
This draft PR is meant to be illustrative. It will be finalized should
the fscrypt encrypted/trusted key extension be merged.
