Linux v5.4 and later supports v2 encryption policies. These have
several advantages over v1 encryption policies:
- Their encryption keys can be added/removed to/from the filesystem by
non-root users, thus gaining the benefits of the filesystem keyring
while also retaining support for non-root use.
- They use a more standard, secure, and flexible key derivation
function. Because of this, some future kernel-level fscrypt features
will be implemented for v2 policies only.
- They prevent a denial-of-service attack where a user could associate
the wrong key with another user's encrypted files.
Prepare the fscrypt tool to support v2 encryption policies by:
- Adding a policy_version field to the EncryptionOptions, i.e. to the
config file and to the policy metadata files.
- Using the kernel-specified algorithm to compute the key descriptor for
v2 policies.
- Handling setting and getting v2 policies.
Actually adding/removing the keys for v2 policies to/from the kernel is
left for the next patch.

This commit changes all the internal import paths from `fscrypt/foo` to
`github.com/google/fscrypt/foo` so that it can be built once we release
externaly. The documentation in README.md is updated accordingly.
Also, the README has a note noting that we do not make any guarantees
about project stability before 1.0 (when it ships with Ubuntu).

This commit changes the error handing for the crypto, filesystem,
metadata, pam, and util packages to use the error handling library
github.com/pkg/errors. This means elimination of the FSError type, an
increased use of wrapping errors (as opposed to logging), switching
on the Cause() of an error (as opposed to its value), and improving our
integration tests involving TEST_FILESYSTEM_ROOT.
This commit also fixes a few bugs with the keyring code to ensure that
our {Find|Remove|Insert}PolicyKey functions are always operating on the
same keyring. The check for filesystem support has been moved from the
filesystem package to the metadata package. Finally, the API for the
filesystem package has been slightly modified:
* filesystem.AllFilesystems() now returns all the filesystems in
sorted order
* certain path methods are now public
O_SYNC is also removed for writing the metadata. We don't get that much
from syncing the metadata, as the actual file data could also be
corrupted by and IO error. The sync operation is also occasionally very
slow (~3 seconds) and can be unfriendly to battery life.

This commit adds in IsValid() checks for the metadata structures that
let us enforce stronger invariants than those imposed by the protobuf
package. The main uses of this will be to check that metadata is valid
before writing it to the filesystem, and to check that the filesystem
contains valid metadata before returning it to the user. These functions
also will log the exact reason if the validity checks fail.
To have these checks in the metadata package, all of the various
constants have been moved to a single metadata/constants.go file. The
uses of these constants were changed accordingly.
Finally, this commit standardizes our use of errors so that they always
begin with an appropriate prefix.
