enable --compat flag by default (#9326)

Browse Source 
if needed use --no-compat to disable md5sum while
verifying any performance numbers.

bring back --compat behavior as default to avoid
additional documentation and confusing behavior,
as we are working towards improving md5sum to
be faster on AVX instructions, enabling this
should be hardly a problem in future versions
of MinIO.

## Caveats
MinIO in its default mode doesn't use MD5Sum checkums of incoming streams unless requested by the client in `Content-Md5` header for validation. This may lead to incompatibility with rare S3 clients like `s3ql` which unfortunately do not set `Content-Md5` but depend on hex MD5Sum for the stream to be calculated by the server. MinIO considers this as a bug in `s3ql` and should be fixed on the client side because MD5Sum is a poor way to checksum and validate the authenticity of the objects. Although MinIO provides a workaround until client applications are fixed use `--compat` option instead to start the server.
```sh
./minio --compat server /data
```
