io_uring/waitid: always remove waitid entry for cancel all

We know the request is either being removed, or already in the process of
being removed through task_work, so we can delete it from our waitid list
upfront. This is important for remove all conditions, as we otherwise
will find it multiple times and prevent cancelation progress.

Remove the dead check in cancelation as well for the hash_node being
empty or not. We already have a waitid reference check for ownership,
so we don't need to check the list too.

io_uring: add IORING_OP_WAITID support

This adds support for an async version of waitid(2), in a fully async
version. If an event isn't immediately available, wait for a callback
to trigger a retry.

The format of the sqe is as follows:

sqe->len The 'which', the idtype being queried/waited for.
sqe->fd The 'pid' (or id) being waited for.
sqe->file_index The 'options' being set.
sqe->addr2 A pointer to siginfo_t, if any, being filled in.

buf_index, add3, and waitid_flags are reserved/unused for now.
waitid_flags will be used for options for this request type. One
interesting use case may be to add multi-shot support, so that the
request stays armed and posts a notification every time a monitored
process state change occurs.

Note that this does not support rusage, on Arnd's recommendation.

See the waitid(2) man page for details on the arguments.
