Encrypted APFS Home Folder on Mac OSX

Note: This is an update of Will Haley's excellent post to use APFS instead of CoreStorage.

UPDATE: Doesn't work on Catalina

The script can't read the file containing the password on the USB thumb drive. When formatted as FAT32 as described below, the user/group of the file is unknown/unknown. But I also tried formatting the USB thumb drive in HFS+, unchecking "Ignore permissions on this volume" and changing the file owner to root:wheel. The file is still not readable to the boot process. Probably something to do with new security restrictions in Catalina. A script running as root reading data from a thumb drive? Makes sense.
