    Add key manager implementation with static key
    
    Per feedback received on other patch sets, an example key manager
    driver is required to support ephemeral storage encryption and
    Cinder volume encryption. The ConfKeyManager class reads its key
    from the project's configuration file and provides this key for
    *all* requests. As such, this key manager is insecure but allows
    the aforementioned encryption features to be used without further
    integration effort.
    
    To clarify the above statements, the configuration-based key
    manager uses a single, fixed key. When used to encrypt data (e.g.,
    by the Cinder volume encryption feature), the encryption provides
    limited protection for the confidentiality of data. For example,
    data cannot be read from a lost or stolen disk, and a volume's
    contents cannot be reconstructed if an attacker intercepts the iSCSI
    traffic between the compute and storage host. If the key is ever
    compromised, then any data encrypted with the key can be decrypted.
