Add an io_uring interface for encoded writes, with the same parameters as the BTRFS_IOC_ENCODED_WRITE ioctl. As with the encoded reads code, there's a test program for this at https://github.com/maharmstone/io_uring-encoded, and I'll get this worked into an fstest. How io_uring works is that it initially calls btrfs_uring_cmd with the IO_URING_F_NONBLOCK flag set, and if we return -EAGAIN it tries again in a kthread with the flag cleared. Ideally we'd honour this and call try_lock etc., but there's still a lot of work to be done to create non-blocking versions of all the functions in our write path. Instead, just validate the input in btrfs_uring_encoded_write() on the first pass and return -EAGAIN, with a view to properly optimizing the optimistic path later on.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
