To be more specific, the core parameter controls what versions Ganesha
registers, advertises, and accepts. If core protocols is just v3 or just v4,
then Ganesha should appropriately only support the specified version (and
all minor versions).

If core option does not include v4, then the PseduoFS is not constructed
(though the new option that allows v3 mounting using Pseudo instead of Path
will still work - that does not utilize the PseudoFS).

The export option allows specific exports to be more limited (if the core
option is just v3, an export can not then also be v4).
