- Localization improvements

- Convert create disk to new keyfile usage
- Fix thumbnail creation in iOS File Provider (if enabled)
- Removed "Import keyfile" option, in favour of the new keyfile usage

The 3.20 series changes the way Disk Decipher interacts with keyfiles. To improve the security of the keyfiles, keyfiles remain stored outside of the app (instead of importing keyfiles into the iOS keychain) and are selected/read when mounting a disk, similar to the way desktop applications use keyfiles.

This allows you to store keyfiles separate from the device on which you use Disk Decipher. Of course, if you prefer, the keyfiles can be stored on the same device.

Keyfiles that have been imported in the app remain usable, although it is best to use the new way to handle keyfiles. During the 3.20 series the import keyfile option will disappear. Also the create new disk option will also be changed to use the new setup.

More information is available on the support site.

This change also allows using keyfiles with passwords longer than 64 characters (VeraCrypt supports passwords up to 128 characters).
