linux: disable SQPOLL io_uring by default (#4492)

The SQPOLL io_uring instance wasn't providing consistent behaviour to
users depending on kernel versions, load shape, ... creating issues
difficult to track and fix. Don't use this ring by default but allow
enabling it by calling `uv_loop_configure()` with
`UV_LOOP_ENABLE_IO_URING_SQPOLL`.

linux: eliminate a read on eventfd per wakeup (#4400)

Register the eventfd with EPOLLET to enable edge-triggered notification
where we're able to eliminate the overhead of reading the eventfd via
system call on each wakeup event.

When the eventfd counter reaches the maximum value of the unsigned 64-bit,
which may not happen for the entire lifetime of the process, we rewind the
counter and retry.

This optimization saves one system call on each event-loop wakeup,
eliminating the overhead of read(2) as well as the extra latency
for each epoll wakeup.

linux: create io_uring sqpoll ring lazily (#4315)

It's been reported that creating many event loops introduces measurable
overhead now that libuv creates an sqpoll-enabled ring.

I don't really see any change in CPU time with or without this change
but deferring ring creation until it's actually used seems like a good
idea, and comes with no downsides that I can think of, so let's do it.

unix: match kqueue and epoll code (#4091)

Match the implementation for linux.c to kqueue.c in the code around the
calls to kevent and epoll.

In linux.c the code was made more DRY by moving the nfds check up
(including a comment of why it's possible) and combining two if checks
into one.

In kqueue.c the assert to check the timeout when nfds == 0 has been
moved to be called directly after the EINTR check. Since it should
always be true regardless.

linux: work around io_uring IORING_OP_CLOSE bug (#4059)

Work around a poorly understood bug in older kernels where closing a
file descriptor pointing to /foo/bar results in ETXTBSY errors when
trying to execve("/foo/bar") later on.

The bug seems to have been fixed somewhere between 5.15.85 and 5.15.90.
I couldn't pinpoint the responsible commit but good candidates are the
several data race fixes.

Interestingly, it seems to manifest only when running under Docker so
the possibility of a Docker bug can't be completely ruled out either.

This commit moves uv__kernel_version() from fs.c to linux.c because the
latter now uses it more than the former.
