[Bug 1510731] [NEW] Can't use crypto in manual disk setup Kubuntu 15.10

Public bug reported:

Selecting "Manual" under disk setup if I add a "/boot" and then create
the next partition as "physical volume for encryption" I'm then given no
way to use that volume (i.e formatting and setting up the passphrase so
I can put LVM or FS on it). See crypto-no-usable-options.png.

None of the available buttons on the screen do anything useful at this
point and additionally it's very easy to accidentally trigger #1510730
while looking for some way to apply the layout.

Basically there doesn't seem to be any way to do custom layouts using
crypto in ubiquity currently.
