Provide the "detached-mode" option for detached LUKS header
formatting.
To format the LUKS header on the pre-creating disk, example
as follows:
1. add a protocol blockdev node of LUKS header
$ virsh qemu-monitor-command vm '{"execute":"blockdev-add",
> "arguments":{"node-name":"libvirt-1-storage", "driver":"file",
> "filename":"/path/to/cipher.gluks" }}'
2. add the secret for encrypting the cipher stored in LUKS
header above
$ virsh qemu-monitor-command vm '{"execute":"object-add",
> "arguments":{"qom-type": "secret", "id":
> "libvirt-1-storage-secret0", "data": "abc123"}}'
3. format the disk node
$ virsh qemu-monitor-command vm '{"execute":"blockdev-create",
> "arguments":{"job-id":"job0", "options":{"driver":"luks",
> "size":0, "file":"libvirt-1-storage", "detached-mode":true,
> "cipher-alg":"aes-256",
> "key-secret":"libvirt-3-storage-encryption-secret0"}}}'

Using a bool flag here is insufficiently flexible. We need to be able to
honour preallocation of the payload device, while using a separate
header.
You need to make the existing 'file' optional, while also adding an
extra optional 'header' field. ie
{ 'struct': 'BlockdevCreateOptionsLUKS',
'base': 'QCryptoBlockCreateOptionsLUKS',
'data': { '*file': 'BlockdevRef',
'*header': 'BlockdevRef',
'size': 'size',
'*preallocation': 'PreallocMode' } }
If 'preallocation' is requested, then we must enforce that 'file' is
non-NULL in the code.
With regards,
Daniel

Ok, thanks for the advice, I'll modify it in the next version.
