nilfs2: add nodiscard mount option
Nilfs has "discard" mount option which issues discard/TRIM commands to underlying block device, but it lacks a complementary option and has no way to disable the feature through remount. This adds "nodiscard" option to resolve this imbalance. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
