ext3: remove deprecated oldalloc 

For a long time now orlov is the default block allocator in the ext3. It
performs better than the old one and no one seems to claim otherwise so
we can safely drop it and make oldalloc and orlov mount option
deprecated.

also be used to enable or disable barriers, for
consistency with other ext3 mount options.
orlov (*) This enables the new Orlov block allocator. It is
enabled by default.
oldalloc This disables the Orlov block allocator and enables
the old block allocator. Orlov should have better
performance - we'd like to get some feedback if it's
the contrary for you.
user_xattr Enables Extended User Attributes. Additionally, you
