Hi Jens,

I have found two people confused about the io_uring_prep_splice()
function, especially on the offset part. The current manpage for
io_uring_prep_splice() doesn't tell about the rules of the offset
arguments.

Despite these rules are already noted in "man 2 io_uring_enter",
people who want to know about this prep function will prefer to read
"man 3 io_uring_prep_splice". Let's explain it there.

Additionally, this series also contains:

- Fix a typo: 's/is adjust/is adjusted/' and indentation in
liburing.h.

- Add io_uring_prep_msg_ring_cqe_flags() to liburing-ffi.map.
Commit 27180d7be059 ("Add io_uring_prep_msg_ring_cqe_flags
function") adds a new inline function in liburing.h, but it doesn't
update the liburing-ffi.map file. Update it.

- Note about --nolibc configure option deprecation in the CHANGELOG.
Since commit bfb432f4cce5 ("configure: Always enable `CONFIG_NOLIBC`
if the arch is supported"), the --nolibc configure option is
deprecated and has no effect. Plus, building liburing on x86-64,
x86, and aarch64 always enables CONFIG_NOLIBC. Note these changes
in the CHANGELOG file.
