Although 'norecovery' mount option is marked deprecated for a long time and a warning message is introduced during the deprecation window, it's still actively utilized by several projects that need a safely way to mount a btrfs without any writes.
Furthermore this 'norecovery' mount option is supported by most major filesystems, which makes it harder to validate our motivation.
This patch would re-introduce the 'norecovery' mount option, and output a message to recommend 'rescue=nologreplay' option.
