Oh, I was under the impression that got fixed some time ago.
Screwing with MKFS_OPTIONS means defeats some of the test specific
mkfs option conflict resolution that some filesystem have.

i.e. when the options specified by the test cause problems with test
run specified MKFS_OPTIONS, the MKFS_OPTIONS get dropped and just
the test specific options are used. Setting random test options in
MKFS_OPTIONS can cause _scratch_mkfs_sized to not use the options
specified by the test at all...

Ok, that should be mentioned in the commit message so people know
why it isn't supported despite supporting encryption...

Cheers,
