[PATCH v6 1/6] fuse: decouple fuse_ring creation from ent registration

Currently, the connection's fuse_ring is created lazily on the first
FUSE_IO_URING_CMD_REGISTER command. A server registers entries from one
thread per queue (one per CPU) and those threads issue their first
REGISTER command concurrently. They then race to create the single
per-connection fuse_ring, which required open-coded handling in
fuse_uring_create() to detect and protect against concurrent creations.

Decouple fuse_ring creation from ent registration and move it to
FUSE_INIT reply processing after a server has negotiated and set
FUSE_OVER_IO_URING. The ring is published before the connection is
marked initialized. fuse_uring_register() no longer creates the ring and
it instead uses the ring set up at init time.
