Crypto Properties Factory

[asfimport]

Basic common interface (abstract class) for loading of file encryption and decryption properties - making them transparent to analytic frameworks, so they can leverage Parquet modular encryption (PARQUET-1178) without any code changes . This interface depends on passing of Hadoop configuration - already done by frameworks that work with parquet-mr. The "write" part of the interface can also utilize the name/path of the file being written, and its WriteContext, that contains the schema with extensions.
