filesystems: use list of strings for fs options
Allow usage of list of strings instead of a comma-separated string
for filesystem options. Deprecate the comma-separated string style
with a warning message; convert this to a hard error after 16.09.
15.09 was just released, so this provides a deprecation period during
the 16.03 release.

closes #10518
