Use the option name 'password-echo' instead of the generic term
'silent'.
Make the option take an argument for better control over echoing
behavior.

Previously, we supported only "," as separator. This adds support for
"+" and makes it the documented choice.
This is to make specifying PCRs in crypttab easier, since commas are
already used there for separating volume options, and needless escaping
sucks.
"," continues to be supported, but in order to keep things minimal not
documented.
Fixe: #19205
Adds a crypttab option 'silent' that enables the AskPasswordFlag
ASK_PASSWORD_SILENT. This allows usage of systemd-cryptsetup to default
to silent mode, rather than requiring the user to press tab every time.
On headless setups, in case other methods fail, asking for a password/pin
is not useful as there are no users on the terminal, and generates
unwanted noise. Add a parameter to /etc/crypttab to skip it.
This commit adds support for disabling the read and write
workqueues with the new crypttab options no-read-workqueue
and no-write-workqueue. These correspond to the cryptsetup
options --perf-no_read_workqueue and --perf-no_write_workqueue
respectively.
The comment is pointless, ECC systematically doesn't allow
encryption/decryption directly, only RSA does that. If you want to use
ECC for asymmetric encryption/decryption you have to combine it with key
exchange scheme and symmetric scheme. This all is not a limitation of
the Yubikey, hence don't claim so. It's just how ECC is.
Feature introduced in 50d2eba27b. Also documented
as part of the kernel parameter syntax in systemd-cryptsetup-generator(8), but
should also be documented here as part of the overall file syntax.
This option is an indication for PID1 that the entry in crypttab is handled by
initrd only and therefore it shouldn't interfer during the usual start-up and
shutdown process.
It should be primarily used with the encrypted device containing the root FS as
we want to keep it (and thus its encrypted device) until the very end of the
shutdown process, i.e. when initrd takes over.
This option is the counterpart of "x-initrd.mount" used in fstab.
Note that the slice containing the cryptsetup services also needs to drop the
usual shutdown dependencies as it's required by the cryptsetup services.
Fixes: #14224
