[RFC] nfs: forward filesystem options to the kernel command line

[Juergen Borleis]

Using NFS in conjunction with boot spec and the feature to let barebox
auto generate a kernel command line must keep the options the NFS filesystem
was mounted in barebox.

This patch extends the kernel command line parameter on demand if something
different than the defaults were used.
    
The command:
    
barebox:/ boot nfs://myhost//root
    
expands to the kernel command line:
    
nfsroot=myhost:/root,v3,tcp
    
while the command:
    
barebox:/ boot nfs://myhost:2049//root
    
now expands to the kernel command line:
   
nfsroot=myhost:/root,v3,tcp,mountport=2049,port=2049
