Mukund Sivaraman pointed out that cryptsetup(5) mentions the "read-only"
option, while the code understands "readonly".
We could just fix the manpage, but for consistency in naming of
multi-word options it would be prettier to have "read-only". So let's
accept both spellings.

New sections are added: PAM options, crypttab options, commandline
options, miscellaneous. The last category will be used for all
untagged <varname> elements.
Commandline options sections is meant to be a developer tool: when
adding an option it is sometimes useful to be able to check if
similarly named options exist elsewhere.

The fact that timeout=0 makes password agents wait indefinitely is documented
in http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/PasswordAgents. Document
it also in the relevant man pages.

This is useful e.g. if the keyfile is a raw device, where only parts of it
should be read. It is typically used whenever the keyfile-offset= option is
specified.

This is useful if your keyfile is a block device, and you want to
use a specific part of it, such as an area between the MBR and the
first partition.
This feature is documented in the Arch wiki[0], and has been supported
by the Arch initscripts, so would be nice to get this into systemd.
This requires libcryptsetup >= 1.4.2 (released 12.4.2012).
