fs/ntfs3: document ads, nocase, and delalloc

The 'ads', 'nocase', and 'delalloc' mount options are accepted by the
parser and reported by ntfs_show_options(), but were never added to the
mount option table in the documentation. Document them.

Kernel. Not to be confused with NTFS ACLs. The option specified as acl
enables support for POSIX ACLs.
* - ads
- Enable access to alternate data streams, i.e. named $DATA
attributes. A stream is addressed by appending a colon and the
stream name to the file name. Reading the pseudo-stream
``query_streams`` returns the names of the streams attached to a
file, one per line::
cat file:query_streams # list stream names
cat file:ads1 # read a stream
touch file:ads2 # create a stream on an existing file
rm file:ads1 # remove a stream
Creating a file together with a stream in a single call, and
renaming a stream, are not supported. Enabled by default.
* - nocase
- Perform file name lookups case-insensitively.
* - delalloc
- Delay block allocation for buffered writes until writeback,
rather than allocating as each write is issued. This lets the
driver allocate larger contiguous runs and reduces fragmentation.
Todo list
=========
- Full journaling support over JBD. Currently journal replaying is supported
