io_uring: add infra for importing vectored reg buffers

Add io_import_reg_vec(), which will be responsible for importing
vectored registered buffers. The function might reallocate the vector,
but it'd try to do the conversion in place first, which is why it's
required of the user to pad the iovec to the right border of the cache.

Overlapping also depends on struct iovec being larger than bvec, which
is not the case on e.g. 32 bit architectures. Don't try to complicate
this case and make sure vectors never overlap, it'll be improved later.
