Given that most file systems in barebox are read-only, it's arguably
useful to see at a glance, which file systems aren't to aid with porting
write-enabled file systems. Let's select a new hidden FS_WRITABLE option
in these cases. Maybe in future, we could even save some code size if
writing isn't required.
