Compatibility of nilfs partitions is now managed with three feature
sets.  This changes old compatibility check with revision number so
that it can accept future revisions.

Note that we can stop support of experimental versions of nilfs that
doesn't know the feature sets by incrementing NILFS_CURRENT_REV.  We
don't have to do it soon, but it would be a possible option whenever
the need arises.
