[RFC PATCH 2/2] dm-crypt: Use any key type which is registered

[Franck LENORMAND <franck.lenormand@xxxxxxx>]

There was only 2 key_type supported by dm-crypt which limits other
implementations.

This patch allows to use any key_type which is registered obtaining
the key_type from key framework.

This also remove the compilation dependency between dm-crypt and
key implementations.
