crypto: add support for querying parameters for block encryption
When creating new block encryption volumes, we accept a list of parameters to control the formatting process. It is useful to be able to query what those parameters were for existing block devices. Add a qcrypto_block_get_info() method which returns a QCryptoBlockInfo instance to report this data. Signed-off-by: Daniel P.
