Add an "Encrypting an LVM Volume" section to the LVM local storage add-on page: how to create the CRYPTO_KEY_* encryption secret, how to create an encrypted dm-thin StorageClass from the UI (Volume Encryption toggle + secret) and via YAML, the cloneStrategy=copy requirement for image clones, and a note that images/VMs/snapshots/backups inherit encryption via the StorageClass.
