Deprecate broken handoffs_first in favor of handoffs_only

The handoffs_first mode in the replicator has the useful behavior of
processing all handoff parts across all disks until there aren't any
handoffs anymore on the node [1] and then it seemingly tries to drop
back into normal operation.  In practice I've only ever heard of
handoffs_first used while rebalancing and turned off as soon as the
rebalance finishes - it's not recommended to run with handoffs_first
mode turned on and it emits a warning on startup if option is enabled.

The handoffs_first mode on the reconstructor doesn't work - it was
prioritizing handoffs *per-part* [2] - which is really unfortunate
because in the reconstructor during a rebalance it's often *much* more
attractive from an efficiency disk/network perspective to revert a
partition from a handoff than it is to rebuild an entire partition from
another primary using the other EC fragments in the cluster.

This change deprecates handoffs_first in favor of handoffs_only in the
reconstructor which is far more useful - and just like handoffs_first
mode in the replicator - it gives the operator the option of forcing the
consistency engine to focus on rebalance.  The handoffs_only behavior is
somewhat consistent with the replicator's handoffs_first option (any
error on any handoff in the replicactor will make it essentially handoff
only forever) but the option does what you want and is named correctly
in the reconstructor.

For consistency with the replicator the reconstructor will mostly honor
the handoffs_first option, but if you set handoffs_only in the config it
always takes precedence.  Having handoffs_first in your config always
results in a warning, but if handoff_only is not set and handoffs_first
is true the reconstructor will assume you need handoffs_only and behaves
as such.

When running in handoffs_only mode the reconstructor will start to log a
warning every cycle if you leave it running in handoffs_only after it
finishes reverting handoffs.  However you should be monitoring on-disk
partitions and disable the option as soon as the cluster finishes the
full rebalance cycle.

1. Ia324728d42c606e2f9e7d29b4ab5fcbff6e47aea fixed replicator
handoffs_first "mode"

2. Unlike replication each partition in a EC policy can have a different
kind of job per frag_index, but the cardinality of jobs is typically
only one (either sync or revert) unless there's been a bunch of errors
during write and then handoffs partitions maybe hold a number of
different fragments.

Known-Issues:

handoffs_only is not documented outside of the example config, see lp

# The handoffs_only mode option is for special case emergency situations during
# rebalance such as disk full in the cluster. This option SHOULD NOT BE
# CHANGED, except for extreme situations. When handoffs_only mode is enabled
# the reconstructor will *only* revert rebalance fragments to primaries and not
# attempt to sync any primary parts with neighbor primaries. This will force
# the reconstructor to sync and delete handoffs fragments more quickly and
# minimize the time of the rebalance by limiting the number of rebuilds. The
# handoffs_only option is only for temporary use, it should be disabled as soon
# as the emergency situation is resolved. When handoffs_only is not set, the
# deprecated handoffs_first option will be honored as a synonym, but may be
# ignored in a future release.
