    Add support for encrypted volumes
    
    This modification adds an encryption key UUID field to the volume
    table, which is sufficient to make Cinder "aware" of encrypted volumes
    as designated by predefined volume types. Integration with a key
    manager is necessary to obtain an actual encryption key UUID (the
    current implementation generates a random UUID when an encrypted
    volumes is created). Cinder should *not* presume that it necessarily
    will have access to the key itself -- this decision depends upon the
    design, implementation, and policy for encrypted volumes. The key's
    UUID is stored in Cinder because it is metadata about the volume.
    
    Implements: blueprint encrypt-cinder-volumes
