Updated version of the diff with the -X flag used to turn cephX off, -x
to turn it on (for historical consistency) and an updated help output
that reflects this change. CephX is on by default.
I figured I'd send this out independent of the issues around vstart
working when cephX is off getting sorted out.

It looks like vstart.sh does not work without authx enabled. Given that, I'd
propose to change the default to having cephx be enabled and then use the -x
flag to disable cephx.
Interestingly enough, the help output for vstart.sh already states that the -x
flag disables authx (which is not the case at present, but is after this patch
is applied).
I've attached a patch to vstart that 1) changes the mention of authx to cephx
for consistency and 2) defaults vstart.sh to using cephx with the -x flag now
serving to disable cephx.
Sounds like a good change, but let's make -x do nothing and -X disable
cephx, so that existing habitual typing of -x doesn't lead to failure.
Also, we should fix the auth none usage at some point. :)
