[oe] [meta-oe][PATCH] cryptsetup: Update to latest version and use openssl as crypto backend

Cryptsetup with the command luksOpen failed with the error message:
device-mapper: status ioctl failed: Permission denied

The error comes from libgcrypt with drops root privileges if it is
linked with libcap support [1]. Update cryptsetup to latest version
and change the crypto backend to openssl as libgcrypt states this
behaviour as a feature [2].

The license was updated to GPLv2 with OpenSSL exception.
