Currently we can perform `send` and `recv` via io_uring. And now, we
are going to add `sendto` and `recvfrom` support for io_uring.

Note that:
  Calling `send(fd, buf, len, flags)` is equivalent to calling
  `sendto(fd, buf, len, flags, NULL, 0)`. Therefore, `sendto`
  is a superset of `send`.

  Calling `recv(fd, buf, len, flags)` is equivalent to calling
  `recvfrom(fd, buf, len, flags, NULL, NULL)`. Therefore, `recvfrom`
  is a superset of `recv`.

As such, let's direct the current supported `IORING_OP_{SEND,RECV}` to
`io_{sendto,recvfrom}`. These functions will also be used for
`IORING_OP_{SENDTO,RECVFROM}` operation in the next patches.

v3:
  - Fix build error when CONFIG_NET is undefined for PATCH 1/3. I
    tried to fix it in PATCH 3/3, but it should be fixed in PATCH 1/3,
    otherwise it breaks the build in PATCH 1/3.

v2:
  - Added Nugra to CC list (tester).
