Description

The code for detecting whether or not an OSD is encrypted does not do any checking if the device is bluestore., it just assumes "encrypted = 0".

One possible fix would be to check the path of the block device, similar to the filestore check:
```
linkpath = os.readlink(block_link)
encrypted = linkpath.startswith('/dev/mapper')
```

Research direction

Locate the OSD collector's device-encryption detection and compare the existing filestore check with the bluestore path. Confirm that encrypted bluestore devices are recognized through their block-device link, and verify the collector's resulting metric or output for both encrypted and unencrypted devices.
