btrfs: scrub: reject unsupported scrub flags



commit 604e6681 upstream.

Since the introduction of scrub interface, the only flag that we support
is BTRFS_SCRUB_READONLY.  Thus there is no sanity checks, if there are
some undefined flags passed in, we just ignore them.

This is problematic if we want to introduce new scrub flags, as we have
no way to determine if such flags are supported.

Address the problem by introducing a check for the flags, and if
unsupported flags are set, return -EOPNOTSUPP to inform the user space.

This check should be backported for all supported kernels before any new
scrub flags are introduced.
