ovl: fix mount option checks for nfs_export with no upperdir
Without upperdir mount option, there is no index dir and the dependency checks nfs_export => index for mount options parsing are incorrect. Allow the combination nfs_export=on,index=off with no upperdir and move the check for dependency redirect_dir=nofollow for non-upper mount case to mount options parsing.
