I've found the UDisks documentation quite helpful (although sometimes
lacking clarity or details) when porting stuff to UDisks2 recently:

http://udisks.freedesktop.org/docs/latest/

The Format method from org.freedesktop.UDisks2.Block allows creating
encrypted filesystems, and in theory it should work on loop devices
as well. I've not tried this myself, though.
