fscrypt: require that key be added when setting a v2 encryption policy
By looking up the master keys in a filesystem-level keyring rather than in the calling processes' key hierarchy, it becomes possible for a user to set an encryption policy which refers to some key they don't actually know, then encrypt their files using that key. Cryptographically this isn't much of a problem, but the semantics of this would be a bit weird. Thus, enforce that a v2 encryption policy can only be set if the user has previously added the key, or has capable(CAP_FOWNER). We tolerate that this problem will continue to exist for v1 encryption policies, however; there is no way around that.
