NFS man page patch that moves nordirplus/rdirplus

NFS man page patch that moves nordirplus/rdirplus from "Options for NFS 
versions 2 and 3 only" to "Options supported by all versions".  Its a 
better fit here since this option is also needed for some NFSv4 servers.

    NFS man page needs updating to clarify that nordirplus mount option
    is also valid for NFSv4. Also should be moved to the section
    "Options supported by all versions".
