Unlike ppoll(2) and epoll(7), Linux io_uring completions can be polled
from userspace. Previously userspace polling was only allowed when all
AioHandler's had an ->io_poll() callback. This prevented starvation of
fds by userspace pollable handlers.
Add the FDMonOps->need_wait() callback that enables userspace polling
even when some AioHandlers lack ->io_poll().
For example, it's now possible to do userspace polling when a TCP/IP
socket is monitored thanks to Linux io_uring.

The AioHandler *node, bool is_new arguments are more complicated to
think about than simply being given AioHandler *old_node, AioHandler
*new_node.
Furthermore, the new Linux io_uring file descriptor monitoring mechanism
added by the new patch requires access to both the old and the new
nodes. Make this change now in preparation.

The ppoll(2) and epoll(7) file descriptor monitoring implementations are
mixed with the core util/aio-posix.c code. Before adding another
implementation for Linux io_uring, extract out the existing
ones so there is a clear interface and the core code is simpler.
The new interface is AioContext->fdmon_ops, a pointer to a FDMonOps
struct. See the patch for details.
Semantic changes:
1. ppoll(2) now reflects events from pollfds[] back into AioHandlers
while we're still on the clock for adaptive polling. This was
already happening for epoll(7), so if it's really an issue then we'll
need to fix both in the future.
2. epoll(7)'s fallback to ppoll(2) while external events are disabled
was broken when the number of fds exceeded the epoll(7) upgrade
threshold. I guess this code path simply wasn't tested and no one
noticed the bug. I didn't go out of my way to fix it but the correct
code is simpler than preserving the bug.
I also took some liberties in removing the unnecessary
AioContext->epoll_available (just check AioContext->epollfd != -1
instead) and AioContext->epoll_enabled (it's implicit if our
AioContext->fdmon_ops callbacks are being invoked) fields.
