Adding cipher mode as a mount option

As part of implementing GCM integrity checking for eCryptfs, we
thought that a good first step would be to take the currently
hardcoded mode (cbc) and turn it into a mount option. Once a
filesystem can be created and mounted using arbitrary block modes, we
can work on allowing integrity protection via GCM.

This should also provide a solution to
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ecryptfs/+bug/1176448

Does this sound like a reasonable first step? If not, what issues are
we missing?

In addition, does anyone have tips on speeding up the
develop/compile/test cycle?
