Do the same check for direct io-wq execution for multishot requests that commit 2a975d426c82 did for the inline execution, and disable multishot mode (and revert to single shot) if the file type doesn't support NOWAIT, and isn't opened in O_NONBLOCK mode. For multishot to work properly, it's a requirement that nonblocking read attempts can be done.
