Librem 5 LUKS Status

Hardware Librem 5

Hi,

@Hologram
A patch to see a message when it is waiting for the smartcard during boot.
It is for the https://github.com/sam-m7/smartcard-luks-osk/blob/master/files/decrypt_gnupg-sc-osk

I successfully tested it on my Librem 5 (Byzantium) with my external smartcard reader.

Kind regards,
