btrfs: fix spurious free_space_tree remount warning



The intended logic of the check is to catch cases where the desired
free_space_tree setting doesn't match the mounted setting, and the
remount is anything but ro->rw. However, it makes the mistake of
checking equality on a masked integer (btrfs_test_opt) against a boolean
(btrfs_fs_compat_ro).

If you run the reproducer:
  $ mount -o space_cache=v2 dev mnt
  $ mount -o remount,ro mnt

you would expect no warning, because the remount is not attempting to
change the free space tree setting, but we do see the warning.

To fix this, add explicit bool type casts to the condition.

I tested a variety of transitions:
sudo mount -o space_cache=v2 /dev/vg0/lv0 mnt/lol
(fst enabled)
mount -o remount,ro mnt/lol
(no warning, no fst change)
sudo mount -o remount,rw,space_cache=v1,clear_cache
(no warning, ro->rw)
sudo mount -o remount,rw,space_cache=v2 mnt
(warning, rw->rw with change)
sudo mount -o remount,ro mnt
(no warning, no fst change)
sudo mount -o remount,rw,space_cache=v2 mnt
(no warning, no fst change)
