dm thin: fix set_pool_mode exposed pool operation races

The pool mode must not be switched until after the corresponding pool
process_* methods have been established.  Otherwise, because
set_pool_mode() isn't interlocked with the IO path for performance
reasons, the IO path can end up executing process_* operations that
don't match the mode.  This patch eliminates problems like the following
(as seen on really fast PCIe SSD storage when transitioning the pool's
mode from PM_READ_ONLY to PM_WRITE):

kernel: device-mapper: thin: 253:2: reached low water mark for data device: sending event.

kernel: device-mapper: thin: pool mode is PM_WRITE not PM_READ_ONLY like expected!?

dm-thin.c:995 was the WARN_ON_ONCE(get_pool_mode(pool) != PM_READ_ONLY);
at the top of handle_unserviceable_bio().  And as the additional
debugging I had conveys: the pool mode was _not_ PM_READ_ONLY like
expected, it was already PM_WRITE, yet pool->process_bio was still set
to process_bio_read_only().

Also, while fixing this up, reduce logging of redundant pool mode
transitions by checking new_mode is different from old_mode.
