cifs: Add mount option -o symlink= for choosing symlink create type

Currently Linux CIFS client creates a new symlink of the first flavor which
is allowed by mount options, parsed in this order: -o (no)mfsymlinks,
-o (no)sfu, -o (no)unix (+ its aliases) and -o reparse=[type].

Introduce a new mount option -o symlink= for explicitly choosing a symlink
flavor. Possible options are:

  -o symlink=default    - The default behavior, like before this change.
  -o symlink=none       - Disallow creating a new symlinks
  -o symlink=native     - Create as native SMB symlink reparse point
  -o symlink=unix       - Create via SMB1 unix extension command
  -o symlink=mfsymlinks - Create as regular file of mfsymlinks format
  -o symlink=sfu        - Create as regular system file of SFU format
  -o symlink=nfs        - Create as NFS reparse point
  -o symlink=wsl        - Create as WSL reparse point

So for example specifying -o sfu,mfsymlinks,symlink=native will allow to
parse symlinks also of SFU and mfsymlinks types (which are disabled by
default unless mount option is explicitly specified), but new symlinks will
be created under native SMB type (which parsing is always enabled).
