CHANGES WITH 250 in spe:
* Support for encrypted and authenticated credentials has been
added. This extends the credentials logic introduced with v247 to
support non-interactive symmetric encryption and authentication,
based on a key that is stored on the /var/ file system or in the TPM2
chip (if available), or the combination of both (by default if a TPM2
chip exists the combination is used, otherwise the /var/ key
only). The credentials are automatically decrypted at the moment a
service is started, and are made accessible to the service itself in
unencrypted form. A new tool `systemd-creds` has been added to
encrypt credentials for this purpose, and two new service file
settings LoadCredentialEncrypted= and SetCredentialEncrypted= have
been added to configure encrypted credentials prepared that way. This
feature is useful for ensuring sensitive material such as SSL
certificates, passwords and similar are stored securely when at rest
and only decrypted when needed, and in a way that can be reproduced
only on the local OS installation and hardware.

specific to UEFI.
Portable Services use the concept without requiring UEFI.
* The GPT Discoverable Partitions Specifications has learnt a new set
of partitions that may carry PKCS#7 signatures for Verity partitions,
encoded in a simple JSON format. This implements a simple mechanism

tested against a set of cryptographic certificates. This is now
