edef 10c6df2e3c nixos/…/swap.nix: don't create a LUKS header for randomEncryption
Creating and then erasing the key relies on the disk erasing data
correctly, and otherwise allows attackers to simply decrypt swap just
using "secretkey". We don't actually need a LUKS header, so we can save
ourselves some pointless disk writes and identifiability.

In addition, I wouldn't have made the awful mistake of backing up my swap partition's LUKS header instead of my zpool's. May my data rest in peace.

WARNING: Don't try to hibernate when you have at least one swap partition with
this option enabled! We have no way to set the partition into which hibernation image
is saved, so if your image ends up on an encrypted one you would lose it!
WARNING #2: Do not use /dev/disk/by-uuid/ or /dev/disk/by-label/ as your swap device
when using randomEncryption as the UUIDs and labels will get erased on every boot when
the partition is encrypted. Best to use /dev/disk/by-partuuid/
