ntfs3: serve as alias for the legacy ntfs driver
Johan Hovold reported that removing the legacy ntfs driver broke boot for him since his fstab uses the legacy ntfs driver to access firmware from the original Windows partition. Use ntfs3 as an alias for legacy ntfs if CONFIG_NTFS_FS is selected. This is similar to how ext3 is treated.
