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.
