Subject: Fix fallback from tcp to udp
References: bnc#863749

Protocol negotiation in mount.nfs does not correctly negotiate with a
server which only support NFSv3 and UDP.

When mount.nfs attempts an NFSv4 mount and fails with ECONNREFUSED
it does not fall back to NFSv3, as this is not recognised as a
"does not support NFSv4" error.
However ECONNREFUSED is a clear indication that the server doesn't
support TCP, and ipso facto does not support NFSv4.
So ECONNREFUSED should trigger a fallback from v4 to v2/3.

Once we allow that error, NFSv3 is attempted and mount.nfs talks to
rpcbind and discovers that UDP should be used for v3 and the mount
succeeds.
