cryptsetup: Add tcrypt support
Tcrypt uses a different approach to passphrases/key files. The passphrase and all key files are incorporated into the "password" to open the volume. So, the idea of slots that provide a way to open the volume with different passphrases/key files that are independent from each other like with LUKS does not apply. Therefore, we use the key file from /etc/crypttab as the source for the passphrase. The actual key files that are combined with the passphrase into a password are provided as a new option in /etc/crypttab and can be given multiple times if more than one key file is used by a volume.
