io_uring: introduce callback driven main loop

The io_uring_enter() has a fixed order of execution: it submits
requests, waits for completions, and returns to the user. Allow to
optionally replace it with a custom loop driven by a callback called
loop_step. The basic requirements to the callback is that it should be
able to submit requests, wait for completions, parse them and repeat.
Most of the communication including parameter passing can be implemented
via shared memory.

The callback should return IOU_LOOP_CONTINUE to continue execution or
IOU_LOOP_STOP to return to the user space. Note that the kernel may
decide to prematurely terminate it as well, e.g. in case the process was
signalled or killed.

The hook takes a structure with parameters. It can be used to ask the
kernel to wait for CQEs by setting cq_wait_idx to the CQE index it wants
to wait for. Spurious wake ups are possible and even likely, the callback
is expected to handle it. There will be more parameters in the future
like timeout.

It can be used with kernel callbacks, for example, as a slow path
deprecation mechanism overwiting SQEs and emulating the wanted
behaviour, however it's more useful together with BPF programs
implemented in following patches.

Note that keeping it separately from the normal io_uring wait loop
makes things much simpler and cleaner. It keeps it in one place instead
of spreading a bunch of checks in different places including disabling
the submission path. It holds the lock by default, which is a better fit
for BPF synchronisation and the loop execution model. It nicely avoids
existing quirks like forced wake ups on timeout request completion. And
it should be easier to implement new features.
