  1. api: refactor for transport agnostic library backend 

    Extend the api-types with the following device-handle types:

* struct dev_handle
* enum nvme_dev_type

The 'dev_handle' provides a, possibly opaque, device handle instead of a
"fixed" file-descriptor. This allows for non-OS managed device-types
such as user-space NVMe-drivers. Additionally, the types allows for
library-side dispatch.

This is done in preparation for xNVMe, and thereby, support for
user-space NVMe driver, io_uring_cmd etc.
