[Bug 1223622] Re: add support for crypttab mounting of luks devices with detached headers

[DiagonalArg]

@Esokrarkose & @therealmarv - Right, I couldn't figure that out either.
I am still using 16.04.  While systemd throws errors on bootup, the
scripts are /also/ used during init, so the root disk is set up
properly.  I don't understand enough about the init system to try to get
this to work under systemd.  (Perhaps another alternative would be to
use a non-systemd distro.)

Title:
  add support for crypttab mounting of luks devices with detached
  headers

Status in cryptsetup package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  A detached luks header for a luks device is a new feature in
  cryptsetup 1.4.  This is a feature request to allow the unlocking of
  luks devices with detached headers, both as a root device (ie in the
  initrd) as well as using the init system.

  The attached patch only solves part of the issue, support in the init
  system.
