dm thin: open dev read only when possible
If a thin pool is created in read-only-metadata mode then only open the metadata device read-only. Previously it was always opened with FMODE_READ | FMODE_WRITE. (Note that dm_get_device() still allows read-only dm devices to be used read-write at the moment: If I create a read-only linear device for the metadata, via dmsetup load --readonly, then I can still create a rw pool out of it.)
