Hi Jens,

This is an RFC patchset. It's already build-tested.

Currently, the default liburing compilation uses libc as its dependency.
liburing doesn't depend on libc when it's compiled on x86-64, x86
(32-bit), and aarch64. There is no benefit to having libc.so linked to
liburing.so on those architectures.

Always enable CONFIG_NOLBIC if the arch is supported. If the
architecture is not supported, fallback to libc.

There are 2 patches in this series:

   - A preparation patch, remove --nolibc from the GitHub CI.

   - Always enable CONFIG_NOLIBC if supported and deprecate --nolibc.

After this series, --nolibc option is deprecated and has no effect.
I plan to remove this option in a future liburing release.

Comments welcome...

This is a preparation patch to deprecate `--nolibc` configure option.
