NFS: Save the value of the "port=" mount option

During a remount based on the mount options displayed in /proc/mounts, we
want to preserve the original behavior of the mount request.  Let's save
the original setting of the "port=" mount option in the mount's nfs_server
structure.

This allows us to simplify the default behavior of port setting for NFSv4
mounts: by default, NFSv2/3 mounts first try an RPC bind to determine the
NFS server's port, unless the user specified the "port=" mount option;
Users can force the client to skip the RPC bind by explicitly specifying
"port=<value>".

NFSv4, by contrast, assumes the NFS server port is 2049 and skips the RPC
bind, unless the user specifies "port=".  Users can force an RPC bind for
NFSv4 by explicitly specifying "port=0".

I added a couple of extra comments to clarify this behavior.
