profiles: mask (older) virtual/libcrypt:0/1 for glibc to ease upgrades
Mask the older virtual/libcrypt subslot (which permits glibc[crypt] instead
of libxcrypt) to ease upgrades.
Not yet doing this for musl (need to figure that out still) or uclibc (which
is going away, see news).
Was on the fence about doing this given it makes it slightly more
awkward to put off the upgrade if desired, but that's really discouraged
at this point, and I think it's worth it to make upgrades easier
for more people.
This helps Portage realise it can/should upgrade to virtual/libcrypt:0/2
rather than giving very confusing blocker errors (which it often, but not
always, gets past).
Final push to do this was a forum post: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1145602.html
