aio-posix: support userspace polling of fd monitoring

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.
