virtualisation.fileSystems.<name>.encrypted.keyFile

Path to a keyfile used to unlock the backing encrypted device. When systemd stage 1 is not enabled, at the time this keyfile is accessed, the neededForBoot filesystems (see utils.fsNeededForBoot) will have been mounted under /mnt-root, so the keyfile path should usually start with "/mnt-root/". When systemd stage 1 is enabled, fsNeededForBoot file systems will be mounted as needed under /sysroot, and the keyfile will not be accessed until its requisite mounts are done.
