Well we've never received any follow-up regarding a stable interface
and/or documented functions, so this bug is still open and the situation
is not more stable than 3 years ago :-P  The interface suggested in
https://bugs.debian.org/901795#53 likely still works, but is still
subject to change while this bug is open.

Yes, however the exact TABFILE value may not be relied upon, and the
file content is mangled to make it suitable for initramfs stage, so it
might not match /etc/crypttab.

copy_exec() is a no-op when the destination exists.

Yes, again see https://bugs.debian.org/901795#53 , that's what
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/cryptgnupg and some of our other hooks
do.
