Add ublk stripe target which can take 1~4 underlying backing files
or block device, with stripe size 4k ~ 512K.
Add two basic tests(write verify & mkfs/mount/umount) over ublk/stripe.
This target is helpful to cover multiple IOs aiming at same
fixed/registered IO kernel buffer.
It is also capable of verifying vectored registered (kernel)buffers
in future for zero copy, so far it isn't supported yet.
Todo: support vectored registered kernel buffer for ublk/zc.

block layer, ublk and io_uring might re-order IO in the past
- plug
- queue ublk io command via task work
Add one test for verifying if sequential WRITE IO is dispatched in order.
- null target is taken, so we can just observe io order from
`tracepoint:block:block_rq_complete` which represents the dispatch order
- WRITE IO is taken because READ may come from system-wide utility

Add stress_test_01 for running IO vs. killing ublk server, so io_uring exit &
cancel code path can be covered, same with ublk's cancel code path.
Especially IO buffer lifetime is one big thing for ublk zero copy, the added
test can verify if this area works as expected.

Both ublk driver and userspace heavily depends on io_uring subsystem,
and tools/testing/selftests/ should be the best place for holding this
cross-subsystem tests.
Add basic read/write IO test over this ublk null disk, and make sure ublk
working.
More tests will be added.
