[libvirt] [PATCH 2/9] Attach encryption information to virStorageVolDef.

The XML allows <encryption format='unencrypted'/>, this implementation
canonicalizes the internal representation so that "vol->encryption" is
non-NULL iff the volume is encrypted.

Note that partial encryption information (e.g. specifying an encryption
format, but not the key/passphrase) is valid:
* virStorageVolGetXMLDesc() will never reveal the key/passphrase, even
  if known by libvirt.
* Future mechanisms could be set up to allow a libvirt user to specify
  during volume creation that a volume should be encrypted, leaving
  libvirt to choose suitable parameters and key and return them:
  this would allow the libvirt user to automatically support any
  encryption parameters (and perhaps encryption formats) supported in
  libvirt, as long as the user can send the same information back when
  using the volume in the future.
