Bug Description

Regarding https://bugs.launchpad.net/cinder/+bug/1926630 - Creating an
encrypted volume type without a cipher accepted but will fail to create
an encrypted volume - we should update the documentation.

For key-size, you can use 128 bit (e.g. AES-128 with CBC), 256 bit
(e.g. AES-256 with CBC) or 512 bit (e.g. AES-256 with XTS mode). You
can do 64 bit (e.g. blowfish-64 with CBC), but anything below 128 bit
has to be considered insecure today. Maybe we can set a default to 256.
