cifs: Add new mount option -o nounicode to disable SMB1 UNICODE mode



SMB1 protocol supports non-UNICODE (8-bit OEM character set) and
UNICODE (UTF-16) modes.

Linux SMB1 client implements both of them but currently does not allow to
choose non-UNICODE mode when SMB1 server announce UNICODE mode support.

This change adds a new mount option -o nounicode to disable UNICODE mode
and force usage of non-UNICODE (8-bit OEM character set) mode.

This allows to test non-UNICODE implementation of Linux SMB1 client against
any SMB1 server, including modern and recent Windows SMB1 server.
