By the time io_zcrx_ifq_free() is called the interface queue should
already be closed, so io_close_queue() will be a no-op. Remove the call
and add a couple of warnings.

freelist_lock, which protects slow path allocations, is currently stored
in struct io_zcrx_area. Once we add support for multiple queues, we'll
need a lock in the zcrx ctx, move it there.

Currently, we have only a one area per zcrx instance, and struct
io_zcrx_ifq stores a single pointer. To prepare for adding more areas,
replace it with an array of areas.
We'll be creating them at runtime, and io_zcrx_append_area() will take
care of synchronisation. The array is protected by 3 locks: ->pp_lock,
->alloc_lock and ->rq.lock. It takes all of them when switching arrays,
and readers should hold either of them.

We might want to create an area without having an instance of struct
io_uring_zcrx_ifq_reg. Extract a helper that doesn't have the ifq
registration structure as an argument but takes the buf length
explicitly.

It's not always possible for the user to predict during registration how
much memory zcrx will need to sustain the traffic. Allow to dynamically
add more areas with a new ctrl code ZCRX_CTRL_ADD_AREA.
