net: add callback for setting a ubuf_info to skb
At the moment an skb can only have one ubuf_info associated with it,
which might be a performance problem for zerocopy sends in cases like
TCP via io_uring. Add a callback for assigning ubuf_info to skb, this
way we will implement smarter assignment later like linking ubuf_info
together.
Note, it's an optional callback, which should be compatible with
skb_zcopy_set(), that's because the net stack might potentially decide
to clone an skb and take another reference to ubuf_info whenever it
wishes. Also, a correct implementation should always be able to bind to
an skb without prior ubuf_info, otherwise we could end up in a situation
when the send would not be able to progress.
