Introduce a new guestfs API called "clevis_luks_unlock". At the libguestfs
level, it is quite simple; it wraps the "clevis luks unlock" guest command
(implemented by the "clevis-luks-unlock" executable, which is in fact a
shell script).
The complexity is instead in the network-based disk encryption
(Clevis/Tang) scheme. Useful documentation:

- https://github.com/latchset/tang#tang
The package providing "clevis-luks-unlock" is usually called
"clevis-luks", occasionally "clevis". Some distros don't package clevis at
all. Add the new API under a new option group (which may not be available)
called "clevisluks".
