8f0bf82648 io_uring: Add new feature gate
By adding a new io_uring feature gate, we let the user the possibility
to choose if he wants to enable the io_uring improvements or not.
Since the io_uring feature depends on the availability on recent host
kernels, it's better if we leave it off for now.

As soon as our CI will have support for a kernel 5.6 with all the
features needed from io_uring, we'll enable this feature gate
permanently.
