Give ui versions more flexibility in terms of command options

A thing I always appreciated in veracrypt is that command line options always translated into GUI options, I'd like if Veracrypt could do the same.

Things I strongly suggest including in GUI cli commands are:

  • preselecting "share mount point" with -M
  • changing mounting options with -e like in cli versions
  • preselecting mount name and position in /var/run/private/$USER/ by appending it to -z

Also, I believe allowing mounting with both zuluCrypt and zuluMount is really rendundant; in my opinion there should be a single coherent cli options list

First i started with zuluCrypt and it had a GUI and CLI parts. zuluCrypt is supposed to deal only with block device based encryption.

Later on, i started zuluMount to deal with mounting only unencrypted volumes and they overlapped in functionality when zuluMount gained the ability to mount block devices based encrypted volumes.

CLI arguments is a mess especially for zuluCrypt.

Will look into adding ability to set those options in zuluCrypt GUI.
