Add io_uring support for several asynchronous file operations:
- read, write
- fsync, fdatasync
- stat, fstat, lstat
io_uring is used when the kernel is new enough, otherwise libuv simply
falls back to the thread pool.
Performance looks great; an 8x increase in throughput has been observed.
This work was sponsored by ISC, the Internet Systems Consortium.

This commit fixes uv_fs_copyfile() in cases where an unknown error
occurs when copy-on-write is requested by setting
UV_FS_COPYFILE_FICLONE. The original approach tried to catch some of
the errors raised by the ioctl() call, assuming that sendfile() would
also fail in those cases. This is not necessarily true, as some
variants of ioctl() also raise EINVAL (some maybe EBADF), but sendfile()
works just fine.
This patch reverses the logic, falling back to sendfile() in any
case where ioctl() returns an error. In other words, it tries much
harder to make uv_fs_copyfile() work.
Related to that, the original approach returned UV_ENOTSUP
unconditionally in cases where ioctl() failed and
UV_FS_COPYFILE_FICLONE_FORCE was set. However, ioctl() may have
failed for other reasons than being not supported. The function
now returns the actual error raised by ioctl(), leaving it to the
caller to deal with it.

When cleaning up after uv_fs_readdir(), it is important to
call uv_fs_req_cleanup() on the readdir request prior to calling
uv_fs_closedir(), because the latter frees memory that the
former needs in order to do its job.

Change the position of UV_LS_LCHOWN, moving it to the end in order to go
around a bug due to it's initial position.
The original position of UV_LS_LCHOWN broke ABI compat, causing a binary
using UV_FS_REALPATH or UV_FS_COPYFILE to break, as the values point to
wrong function.

Add getter/setter functions for the fields of public structs that
might be relevant to e.g. Node.js addons.
Through these methods, ABI compatibility for a subset of the ABI
is easier to achieve, since using them makes code independent
of the exact offsets of these fields.
The intended use case that prompted this are N-API addons for
Node.js, which look for more long-term ABI compatibility guarantees
than typical Node code. With these helper functions, using libuv
directly should no longer be an obstacle for such addons.

The uv__get_osfhandle() function is a private functio of the
Windows subsystem, and its used to get a Windows HANDLE out
of a file descriptor number.
The motivation behind making this function public is to
allow Node.js programs to pass file descriptors created
using fs.open() to native Node.js C++ add-ons, and be able to
successfully convert them to Windows HANDLEs.
