Since, well, forever, the Linux NFS server's nfsd_commit() function
has returned nfserr_inval when the passed-in byte range arguments
were non-sensical.

However, according to RFC 1813 section 3.3.21, NFSv3 COMMIT requests
are permitted to return only the following non-zero status codes:

      NFS3ERR_IO
      NFS3ERR_STALE
      NFS3ERR_BADHANDLE
      NFS3ERR_SERVERFAULT

NFS3ERR_INVAL is not included in that list. Likewise, NFS4ERR_INVAL
is not listed in the COMMIT row of Table 6 in RFC 8881.

RFC 7530 does permit COMMIT to return NFS4ERR_INVAL, but does not
specify when it can or should be used.

Instead of dropping or failing a COMMIT request in a byte range that
is not supported, turn it into a valid request by treating one or
both arguments as zero. Offset zero means start-of-file, count zero
means until-end-of-file, so we only ever extend the commit range.
NFS servers are always allowed to commit more and sooner than
requested.

The range check is no longer bounded by NFS_OFFSET_MAX, but rather
by the value that is returned in the maxfilesize field of the NFSv3
FSINFO procedure or the NFSv4 maxfilesize file attribute.

Note that this change results in a new pynfs failure:

CMT4     st_commit.testCommitOverflow                             : RUNNING
CMT4     st_commit.testCommitOverflow                             : FAILURE
           COMMIT with offset + count overflow should return
           NFS4ERR_INVAL, instead got NFS4_OK

IMO the test is not correct as written: RFC 8881 does not allow the
COMMIT operation to return NFS4ERR_INVAL.
