~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Add cryptsetup --token-type parameter.
It restricts token type to the parameter value in case no specific
token-id is selected.
* Do not retry token operations if PIN entry failed.
* Respect keyslot priority with token-based activation.
* veritysetup: add --root-hash-file option
Allow passing the root hash via a file, rather than verbatim on

API call (fixes API break in rc0 release).
* Respect keyslot priority with token-based activation.
