Title:
  nfsiostat broken and exits with traceback

Bug description:
  nfsiostat, in nfs-common-1.3.4-2, is broken in bionic, cosmic and
  disco.

  When you run the command nfsiostat, either as root or a regular user,
  the following traceback is printed:

  $ nfsiostat
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/sbin/nfsiostat", line 640, in <module>
      iostat_command(prog)
    File "/usr/sbin/nfsiostat", line 593, in iostat_command
      devices = list_nfs_mounts(origdevices, mountstats)
    File "/usr/sbin/nfsiostat", line 495, in list_nfs_mounts
      for device, descr in list(mountstats.items()):
  TypeError: 'list' object is not callable

  This is caused by the 'list' reserved word being used as a variable
  name in list_nfs_mounts(), and is explained here:
  https://askubuntu.com/questions/1123319/nfsiostat-failing-
  on-18-04/1123336#1123336?s=a1e9150fbf284e849efe6fe084e7c7b8

  I will send a patch to upstream shortly.
