io_uring/rw: add support for IORING_OP_READ_MULTISHOT
This behaves like IORING_OP_READ, except:
1) It only supports pollable files (eg pipes, sockets, etc). Note that
for sockets, you probably want to use recv/recvmsg with multishot
instead.
2) It supports multishot mode, meaning it will repeatedly trigger a
read and fill a buffer when data is available. This allows similar
use to recv/recvmsg but on non-sockets, where a single request will
repeatedly post a CQE whenever data is read from it.
3) Because of #2, it must be used with provided buffers. This is
uniformly true across any request type that supports multishot and
transfers data, with the reason being that it's obviously not
possible to pass in a single buffer for the data, as multiple reads
may very well trigger before an application has a chance to process
previous CQEs and the data passed from them.
