Keep the NTFS kernel-driver option as a generic in-kernel NTFS path rather than an ntfs3-specific path. Add --filesystem=kernel-ntfs and -m kernelntfs routes that select a registered or loadable kernel NTFS driver and mount with -i so mount.ntfs/ntfs-3g helpers are not invoked.
Preserve --filesystem=ntfs3 as a literal pin to the ntfs3 driver. Treat both ntfs3 and kernel-ntfs as mount-only selectors; volume creation continues to use filesystem type NTFS.
The preference and -m kernelntfs path only select an in-kernel NTFS driver when no explicit filesystem type was supplied and blkid detects NTFS.
Treat ntfs as the preferred in-kernel driver on Linux 7.1 and later, where the upstream read/write driver is expected. On earlier kernels, select ntfs only when module metadata identifies the standalone read/write driver and /sys/module confirms it loaded, avoiding ntfs3 read-only ntfs compatibility registrations. Fall back to ntfs3 otherwise, and report a generic kernel-driver error if neither supported driver is available or loadable.
Rename the internal preference/config field to MountNtfsWithKernelDriver, migrate the old MountNtfsWithNtfs3 preference key, and update UI strings, CLI help, documentation, release notes, and translation placeholders accordingly.

* Documentation: Remove XHTML spec and fix errors
None of the docs follow the XHTML specification, which means
that programs that expect this (such as Gnome Web) as it is advertised
as such, will completely fail to parse it as it is incorrect syntax. So
it is removed.
* Remove .chm files
The cascade order has been updated so that SM4 is applied after the other cipher(s) (e.g., Serpent). This change reflects standard cryptanalytic guidance, which shows that the overall strength of a cascade is limited by the first encryption stage. Given that SM4 uses a 128-bit key, its post-quantum brute-force resistance is lower than ciphers with a 256-bit key (such as Serpent). By placing SM4 last, we ensure that any potential weakness in SM4 cannot reduce the security margin provided by the stronger cipher.
* refactor: use UNMOUNT instead of DISMOUNT in code
This change updates the term DISMOUNT in constants to UNMOUNT.
Other occurrences (e.g. variable names) are left alone for now.
* refactor(ui): use unmount instead of dismount
This change updates the GUI text and replaces dismount with unmount.
* docs: update term dismount -> unmount
* refactor(cmdline): add unmount
This change adds an argument 'unmount' for command line usage, while
trying to deprecate the old disnount argument.
The current dismount argument/flag will still work to not introduce
a breaking change.
* docs: mention that /dismount is deprecated
This change fixes the shorthand version of the argument /unmount
It also adds back the info for /dismount and that it is deprecated.
