fault-inject: make fail-nth read/write interface symmetric
The read interface for fail-nth looks a bit odd. Read from this file
returns "NYYYY..." or "YYYYY..." (this makes me surprise when cat this
file). Because there is no EOF condition. The first character
indicates current->fail_nth is zero or not, and then current->fail_nth
is reset to zero.
Just returning task->fail_nth value is more natural to understand.
