md: integrate spares into array at earliest opportunity.
As v1.x metadata can record that a member of the array is
not completely recovered, it make sense to record that a
spare has become a regular member of the array at the earliest
opportunity.
So remove the tests on "recovery_offset > 0" in super_1_sync
as they really aren't needed, and schedule a metadata update
immediately after adding spares to a degraded array.
This means that if a crash happens immediately after a recovery
starts, the new device will be included in the array and recovery will
continue from wherever it was up to. Previously this didn't happen
unless recovery was at least 1/16 of the way through.
