Related to #8114 and may end up merging onto it.

ipfs/go-ipfs-config#149 adds Internal.UnixFSShardingSizeThreshold config flag

Testing:

  1. Does the config flag work?
  2. Do the old tests work if the sharding threshold is set really low whenever we previously used Experimental.ShardingEnabled?

- applies fix from go-ipfs-config which removes null when default
- escapes JSON string when passed in sharness script
* test: add tests for automatic sharding and unsharding
* refactor: changed some naming in the sharding sharness tests to make more sense

This ensures existing users of global sharding experiment get notified
that the flag no longer works + that autosharding happens automatically.

For people who NEED to keep the old behavior (eg. have no time to
migrate today) there is a note about restoring it with
`UnixFSShardingSizeThreshold`.
Comment on lines +329 to +334
// Migrate users of deprecated Experimental.ShardingEnabled flag
if cfg.Experimental.ShardingEnabled {
logger.Fatal("The `Experimental.ShardingEnabled` field is no longer used, please remove it from the config.\n" +
"go-ipfs now automatically shards when directory block is bigger than `" + shardSizeString + "`.\n" +
"If you need to restore the old behavior (sharding everything) set `Internal.UnixFSShardingSizeThreshold` to `1B`.\n")
}

ℹ️ This provides a migration path for existing users that have experiment enabled.
I also updated docs/experimental-features.md and made flag optional in JSON in ipfs/go-ipfs-config#158

Thanks. This seems like the best we can get.

There's no way to warn anybody who explicitly wanted sharding to stay off since that flag didn't have no way to denote "unset" which is what we're moving towards now.
