Announce loop-AES-v1.6i file/swap crypto package

loop-AES changes since previous release:
- Removed support for Keith Owens' unmaintained kbuild-2.5
- Added loop device number to some error case printk's in the loop driver
  (2.4 and 2.5 kernels).
- Makefile no longer attempts to use i586 assembler code on x86-64
- Makefile now uses pre-patched loop code on 2.4 and later kernels.
- loop.c-2.5.patched updated with fixes from 2.5.50
- Makefile updated to work with 2.5.50
- Added -F command line option to losetup. -F reads and uses loop related
  mount options from /etc/fstab
- Module locking rewritten to support 2.5.48 and later kernels.
- Second util-linux patch dropped because mainline mount/umount now
  understand -O option.
- Fixed bug where running 'swapoff -a' twice returned error status. Bug fix
  from andras AT chello.se
