autofs-5.1.6 - make bind mounts propagation slave by default

From: Ian Kent <raven@themaw.net>

Make setting mount propagation on bind mounts mandatory with a default
of propagation slave.

When using multi-mounts that have bind mounts the bind mount will have
the same properties as its parent which is commonly propagation shared.
And if the mount target is also propagation shared this can lead to a
deadlock when attempting to access the offset mounts. When this happens
an unwanted offset mount is propagated back to the target file system
resulting in a deadlock since the automount target is itself an
(unwanted) automount trigger.

This problem has been present much longer than I originally thought,
perhaps since mount propagation was introduced into the kernel, so
explicitly setting bind mount propagation is the sensible thing to do.
