.oO(Why doesn't the enum just have one option per line, so the changelog
is less invasive?)

Apparently that discussion never resulted in actual changes, so thanks
for continuing it now.
The mount options are a bit weird, because ssd_spread also includes ssd,
but doesn't show it.
I personally don't like all of them at all, and I should really finish
and send my proposal to get them replaced by options that can choose
extent allocator for data and metadata individually (instead of some
setting that changes them both at the same time) because there are
proper real life situations that e.g. benefit from nossd style 'tetris'
data allocator with ssd_spread style 'contiguous' metadata extent allocator.
