ovl: rename filesystem type to "overlay"

Some distributions carry an "old" format of overlayfs while mainline has a
"new" format.

The distros will possibly want to keep the old overlayfs alongside the new
for compatibility reasons.

To make it possible to differentiate the two versions change the name of
the new one from "overlayfs" to "overlay".

+  mount -t overlay overlay -olowerdir=/lower,upperdir=/upper,\
 workdir=/work /merged
 
 The "workdir" needs to be an empty directory on the same filesystem
