crypto: make PBKDF iterations configurable for LUKS format
As protection against bruteforcing passphrases, the PBKDF algorithm is tuned by counting the number of iterations needed to produce 1 second of running time. If the machine that the image will be used on is much faster than the machine where the image is created, it can be desirable to raise the number of iterations. This change adds a new 'iter-time' property that allows the user to choose the iteration wallclock time. Reviewed-by: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel P.
