NFS: Fix security flavor negotiation with legacy binary mounts

Commit
4580a92d44 "NFS: Use server-recommended security flavor by
default (NFSv3)" introduced a behavior regression for NFS mounts
done via a legacy binary mount(2) call.
Ensure that a default security flavor is specified for legacy binary
mount requests, since they do not invoke nfs_select_flavor() in the
kernel.
Busybox uses klibc's nfsmount command, which performs NFS mounts
using the legacy binary mount data format. /sbin/mount.nfs is not
affected by this regression.
