Setup encrypted LVM from Live CD

Registered by komputes

Whole disk encryption improvements suggested for 10.10:

Installation (ubiquity):
Live CD could be used to easily setup as system with encrypted LVM. Currently this can only be done using the alternative install CD. This would greatly help users protect their data and privacy. Implements Brainstorm #1857

Mounting:
Live CD and standard installation could be used to easily unlock/mount partitions inside an encrypted LVM. Currently this can only be done using cryptsetup on the command line. This would facilitate access to personal data when booting from other media (recovery being the major use case). Fixes Bug #549629
