share/fstab: drop reiserfs references and noatime, use defaults
ReiserFS was deprecated in Linux 5.18 and slated for removal in 2025.
Using 'noatime' does seldom really bring any noticeable performance
benefit. The default of 'relatime', which Linux supports for a long
time, is a good compromise. Having an (coarse-grained) atime allows
for certain use cases. For example, a tool that detects unused
packages in a system and suggest them for removal.
A generic configuration file like this should simply use the
defaults. Especially if those are sane ones. No need to continue the
noatime cargo cult.
