quota: setting 'read-only' option in xdata to instruct DHT to not heal

When quota is enabled the quota enforcer tries to get the size of the
source directory by sending nameless lookup to quotad. But if the rename
is successful even on one subvol or the source layout has anomalies then
this nameless lookup in quotad tries to heal the directory which requires
a lock on as many subvols as it can. But src is already locked as part of
rename. For rename to proceed in brick it needs to complete a cluster-wide
lookup. But cluster-wide lookup in quotad is blocked on locks held by rename,
hence a deadlock. To avoid this quota sends an option in xdata which instructs
DHT not to heal.
