Subject: [RFC 2/2] udp: optimise write wakeups with SOCK_NOSPACE

Often the write queue is never filled full, however every send skb would
still try to unnecessary wake the pollers via sock_wfree(). That holds
even if we don't have any write/POLLIN pollers as the socket's waitqueue
is rw mixed.

Optimise it with SOCK_NOSPACE, which avoids waking up unless there are
waiters that were starved of space. With a dummy device io_uring
benchmark pushing as much as it can, I've got +5% to CPU bound
throughput (2268 Krps -> 2380). Profiles showed ~3-4% total reduction
due to the change in the CPU share of destructors.

As noted in the previous patch, we introduced udp_wfree and it's not
based on sock_wfree() because SOCK_NOSPACE requires support from
the poll callback, and there seems to be a bunch of custom ones in the
tree.
