aio: Add io_method=io_uring
Performing AIO using io_uring can be considerably faster than
io_method=worker, particularly when lots of small IOs are issued, as
a) the context-switch overhead for worker based AIO becomes more significant
b) the number of IO workers can become limiting
io_uring, however, is linux specific and requires an additional compile-time
dependency (liburing).
This implementation is fairly simple and there are substantial optimization
opportunities.
The description of the existing AIO_IO_COMPLETION wait event is updated to
make the difference between it and the new AIO_IO_URING_EXECUTION clearer.
