btrfs-progs: docs: update chattr attribute for NOCOMPRESS 

There were plans to add X as flag to set/unset the btrfs NOCOMPRESS
attribute but that never materialized. In e2fsprogs the letter 'm' has
been assigned to the same functionality and released in version 1.46.2.

Update the docs and mention that the compression options are
conflicting.
