libceph: don't allow bidirectional swap of pg-upmap-items

This reverts most of commit f53b7665

 ("libceph: upmap semantic
changes").

We need to prevent duplicates in the final result.  For example, we
can currently take

  [1,2,3] and apply [(1,2)] and get [2,2,3]

or

  [1,2,3] and apply [(3,2)] and get [1,2,2]

The rest of the system is not prepared to handle duplicates in the
result set like this.

The reverted piece was intended to allow

  [1,2,3] and [(1,2),(2,1)] to get [2,1,3]

to reorder primaries.  First, this bidirectional swap is hard to
implement in a way that also prevents dups.  For example, [1,2,3] and
[(1,4),(2,3),(3,4)] would give [4,3,4] but would we just drop the last
step we'd have [4,3,3] which is also invalid, etc.  Simpler to just not
handle bidirectional swaps.  In practice, they are not needed: if you
just want to choose a different primary then use primary_affinity, or
pg_upmap (not pg_upmap_items).
