docs: Drop mention of aes-256-cbc
This is most likely referring to past qemu-img behavior. Defaults are not encoded in libvirt. `qemu-img` behavior is runtime-dependent, with a current preference towards 'aes-256-xts'. Signed-off-by: Bruno Renié <brutasse@gmail.com>

For volume creation, it is possible to specify the encryption algorithm used to
|
||||
encrypt the luks volume. The following two optional elements may be provided for
|
||||
that purpose. It is hypervisor dependent as to which algorithms are supported.
|
||||
The default algorithm used by the storage driver backend when using qemu-img to
|
||||
create the volume is 'aes-256-cbc' using 'essiv' for initialization vector
|
||||
generation and 'sha256' hash algorithm for both the cipher and the
|
||||
initialization vector generation.
|
||||
If no cipher elements are provided, the storage driver backend will use
|

qemu-img's default encryption settings.
