Corinna Vinschen 367c1ae161 Cygwin: mount: define binary mount as default
Commit c1023ee353705671aa9a8e4e1179022277add2aa changed the way
path_conv::binmode() works.  Rather than returning three states,
O_BINARY, O_TEXT, 0, it only returned 2 states, O_BINARY, O_TEXT.  Since
mounts are only binary if they are explicitely mounted binary by setting
the MOUNT_BINARY flag, textmode is default.

This introduced a new bug.  When inheriting stdio HANDLEs from native
Windows processes, the fhandler and its path_conv are created from a
device struct only.  None of the path or mount flags get set this way.
So the mount flags are 0 and path_conv::binmode() returned 0.

After the path_conv::binmode() change it returned O_TEXT since, as
explained above, the default mount mode is textmode.

Rather than just enforcing binary mode for path_conv's created from
device structs, this patch changes the default mount mode to binary:

Replace MOUNT_BINARY flag with MOUNT_TEXT flag with opposite meaning.
Drop all explicit setting of MOUNT_BINARY.  Drop local set_flags
function, it doesn't add any value.
