[RFC PATCH v1 4/4] ubifs: auth: consult encrypted and trusted keys if no logon key was found

Currently, UBIFS auth_key can only be a logon key: This is a user key
that's provided to the kernel in plaintext and that then remains within
the kernel. Linux also supports trusted and encrypted keys, which have
stronger guarantees: They are only exposed to userspace in encrypted
form and, in the case of trusted keys, can be directly rooted to a trust
source like a TPM chip.
Add support for auth_key to be either a logon, encrypted or trusted key.
At mount time, the keyring will be searched for a key with the supplied
name in that order.
