io_uring: openat directly into fixed fd table
Instead of opening a file into a process's file table as usual and then registering the fd within io_uring, some users may want to skip the first step and place it directly into io_uring's fixed file table. This patch adds such a capability for IORING_OP_OPENAT and IORING_OP_OPENAT2. The behaviour is controlled by setting sqe->file_index, where 0 implies the old behaviour using normal file tables. If non-zero value is specified, then it will behave as described and place the file into a fixed file slot sqe->file_index - 1. A file table should be already created, the slot should be valid and empty, otherwise the operation will fail. Keep the error codes consistent with IORING_OP_FILES_UPDATE, ENXIO and EINVAL on inappropriate fixed tables, and return EBADF on collision with already registered file. Note: IOSQE_FIXED_FILE can't be used to switch between modes, because accept takes a file, and it already uses the flag with a different meaning.
