When external event sources are disabled fdmon-io_uring falls back to
fdmon-poll. The ->need_wait() callback needs to watch for this so it
can return true when external event sources are disabled.
It is also necessary to call ->wait() when AioHandlers have changed
because io_uring is asynchronous and we must submit new sqes.
Both of these changes to ->need_wait() together fix tests/test-aio -p
/aio/external-client, which failed with:
test-aio: tests/test-aio.c:404: test_aio_external_client: Assertion `aio_poll(ctx, false)' failed.

Unlike ppoll(2) and epoll(7), Linux io_uring completions can be polled
from userspace. Previously userspace polling was only allowed when all
AioHandler's had an ->io_poll() callback. This prevented starvation of
fds by userspace pollable handlers.
Add the FDMonOps->need_wait() callback that enables userspace polling
even when some AioHandlers lack ->io_poll().
For example, it's now possible to do userspace polling when a TCP/IP
socket is monitored thanks to Linux io_uring.

The recent Linux io_uring API has several advantages over ppoll(2) and
epoll(2). Details are given in the source code.
Add an io_uring implementation and make it the default on Linux.
Performance is the same as with epoll(7) but later patches add
optimizations that take advantage of io_uring.
It is necessary to change how aio_set_fd_handler() deals with deleting
AioHandlers since removing monitored file descriptors is asynchronous in
io_uring. fdmon_io_uring_remove() marks the AioHandler deleted and
aio_set_fd_handler() will let it handle deletion in that case.
