Normally MSG_RING requires both a source and a destination ring. But some users don't always have a ring avilable to send a message from, yet they still need to notify a target ring. Add support for using io_uring_register(2) without having a source ring, using a file descriptor of -1 for that. Internally those are called blind registration opcodes. Implement IORING_REGISTER_SEND_MSG_RING as a blind opcode, which simply takes an sqe that the application can put on the stack and use the normal liburing helpers to initialize it. Then the app can call: io_uring_register(-1, IORING_REGISTER_SEND_MSG_RING, &sqe, 1); and get the same behavior in terms of the target, where a CQE is posted with the details given in the sqe. For now this takes a single sqe pointer argument, and hence arg must be set to that, and nr_args must be 1. Could easily be extended to take an array of sqes, but for now let's keep it simple.
