io_uring: add support for kernel registered bvecs

Provide an interface for the kernel to leverage the existing
pre-registered buffers that io_uring provides. User space can reference
these later to achieve zero-copy IO.

User space must register an empty fixed buffer table with io_uring in
order for the kernel to make use of it.
