    fs.json format changes


remove redundant fields minio and format which are currently used only for verification, and update fs.json version
In the future, checksum info will be used by caching for storing bit-rot checksum. Since the version is being updated for fs.json checksum info fields are being piggy-backed as as placeholder.
