The 'ubifs_scan()' function returns -EUCLEAN if something is corrupted
and recovery is needed, otherwise it returns other error codes. However,
in few places UBIFS does not check the error codes and runs recovery.
This patch changes this behavior and makes UBIFS start recovery only
on -EUCLEAN errors.

At the moment UBIFS print large and scary error messages and
flash dumps in case of nearly any corruption, even if it is
a recoverable corruption. For example, if the master node is
corrupted, ubifs_scan() prints error dumps, then UBIFS recovers
just fine and goes on.
This patch makes UBIFS print scary error messages only in
real cases, which are not recoverable. It adds 'quiet' argument
to the 'ubifs_scan()' function, so the caller may ask 'ubi_scan()'
not to print error messages if the caller is able to do recovery.

When mounting/re-mounting, UBIFS returns EINVAL even if the ENOSPC
or EROFS codes are are much better, just because we have not found
references to ENOSPC/EROFS in mount (2) man pages. This patch
changes this behaviour and makes UBIFS return real error code,
because:
1. It is just less confusing and more logical
2. mount is not described in SuSv3, so it seems to be not really
well-standartized
3. we do not cover all cases, and any random undocumented in man
pages error code may be returned anyway
