statmount: add flag to retrieve unescaped options



Filesystem options can be retrieved with STATMOUNT_MNT_OPTS, which
returns a string of comma separated options, where some characters are
escaped using the \OOO notation.

Add a new flag, STATMOUNT_OPT_ARRAY, which instead returns the raw
option values separated with '\0' charaters.

Since escaped charaters are rare, this inteface is preferable for
non-libmount users which likley don't want to deal with option
de-escaping.

Example code:

	if (st->mask & STATMOUNT_OPT_ARRAY) {
		const char *opt = st->str + st->opt_array;

		for (unsigned int i = 0; i < st->opt_num; i++) {
			printf("opt_array[%i]: <%s>\n", i, opt);
			opt += strlen(opt) + 1;
		}
	}

Example ouput:

(1) mnt_opts: <lowerdir+=/l\054w\054r,lowerdir+=/l\054w\054r1,upperdir=/upp\054r,workdir=/w\054rk,redirect_dir=nofollow,uuid=null>

(2) opt_array[0]: <lowerdir+=/l,w,r>
    opt_array[1]: <lowerdir+=/l,w,r1>
    opt_array[2]: <upperdir=/upp,r>
    opt_array[3]: <workdir=/w,rk>
    opt_array[4]: <redirect_dir=nofollow>
    opt_array[5]: <uuid=null>
