[Bug 284262] nfsd fails to start with nfsv4_server_only but without rpcbind/mountd

Well, mountd and nfsd must be "on the same page"
w.r.t. whether or not the server is an "NFSv4 only"
one. As such, it puts the information in the kernel
via those sysctls so both know.

Note that someone might want to have mountd register
with rpcbind even though it is an NFSv4 only server.
(Probably for a "broken" NFS client that won't do an
NFSv4 mount unless it can find "Mount" via rpcbind.)
I think you'll find very old FreeBSD clients are in
that camp, from back when NFSv4 was just being
integrated into FreeBSD.
