295d432175 passfile: directly read file instead of invoking cat
Allows better error handling, gets rid of the call to an
external program, and fixes https://github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/issues/278 .

009cc0ae8b Update README and MANPAGE for v1.5
Also update the performance numbers. I see some slowdown, reason
is not yet clear, but nothing to block the release.

4e5783591f fsck: report skipped corrupt files
OpenDir and ListXAttr skip over corrupt entries,
readFileID treats files the are too small as empty.
This improves usability in the face of corruption,
but hides the problem in a log message instead of
putting it in the return code.

Create a channel to report these corruptions to fsck
so it can report them to the user.

Also update the manpage and the changelog with the -fsck option.

Closes https://github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/issues/191

f3c777d5ea main: Add '-devrandom' commandline option
Allows to use /dev/random for generating the master key instead of the
default Go implementation. When the kernel random generator has been
properly initialized both are considered equally secure, however:

* Versions of Go prior to 1.9 just fall back to /dev/urandom if the
  getrandom() syscall would be blocking (Go Bug #19274)

* Kernel versions prior to 3.17 do not support getrandom(), and there
  is no check if the random generator has been properly initialized
  before reading from /dev/urandom

This is especially useful for embedded hardware with low-entroy. Please
note that generation of the master key might block indefinitely if the
kernel cannot harvest enough entropy.

e36a0ebf18 main: add "-sharedstorage" flag
At the moment, it does two things:

1. Disable stat() caching so changes to the backing storage show up
   immediately.
2. Disable hard link tracking, as the inode numbers on the backing
   storage are not stable when files are deleted and re-created behind
   our back. This would otherwise produce strange "file does not exist"
   and other errors.

26a6e61a46 MANPAGE: update exit codes
The exit codes have been documented in CLI_ABI.md for a while,
but they should also be listed in the man page.

Also fix the rendering of "[-o COMMA-SEPARATED-OPTIONS]", where
the square brackets where interpreted as something. Escape all
square brackets to be safe.

f1945c4daa Add -forcedecode
Force decode of encrypted files even if the integrity check fails, instead of
failing with an IO error. Warning messages are still printed to syslog if corrupted
files are encountered.
It can be useful to recover files from disks with bad sectors or other corrupted
media.

Closes https://github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/pull/102 .

0f8d3318a3 main, fusefrontend: add "-noprealloc" option
Preallocation is very slow on hdds that run btrfs. Give the
user the option to disable it. This greatly speeds up small file
operations but reduces the robustness against out-of-space errors.

Also add the option to the man page.

9cf3ced0ce main: also accept options at the end via "-o"

always enabling them when running as root.
