dm crypt: introduce new format of cipher with "capi:" prefix
For the new authenticated encryption we have to support generic composed
modes (combination of encryption algorithm and authenticator) because
this is how the kernel crypto API accesses such algorithms.
To simplify the interface, we accept an algorithm directly in crypto API
format. The new format is recognised by the "capi:" prefix. The
dmcrypt internal IV specification is the same as for the old format.
The crypto API cipher specifications format is:
capi:cipher_api_spec-ivmode[:ivopts]
Examples:
capi:cbc(aes)-essiv:sha256 (equivalent to old aes-cbc-essiv:sha256)
capi:xts(aes)-plain64 (equivalent to old aes-xts-plain64)
Examples of authenticated modes:
capi:gcm(aes)-random
capi:authenc(hmac(sha256),xts(aes))-random
capi:rfc7539(chacha20,poly1305)-random
Authenticated modes can only be configured using the new cipher format.
Note that this format allows user to specify arbitrary combinations that
can be insecure. (Policy decision is done in cryptsetup userspace.)
Authenticated encryption algorithms can be of two types, either native
modes (like GCM) that performs both encryption and authentication
internally, or composed modes where user can compose AEAD with separate
specification of encryption algorithm and authenticator.
For composed mode with HMAC (length-preserving encryption mode like an
XTS and HMAC as an authenticator) we have to calculate HMAC digest size
(the separate authentication key is the same size as the HMAC digest).
Introduce crypt_ctr_auth_cipher() to parse the crypto API string to get
HMAC algorithm and retrieve digest size from it.
Also, for HMAC composed mode we need to parse the crypto API string to
get the cipher mode nested in the specification. For native AEAD mode
(like GCM), we can use crypto_tfm_alg_name() API to get the cipher
specification.
Because the HMAC composed mode is not processed the same as the native
AEAD mode, the CRYPT_MODE_INTEGRITY_HMAC flag is no longer needed and
"hmac" specification for the table integrity argument is removed.
