    Add encryption metadata to volume table
    
    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.
