net/smc: introduce loopback-ism for SMC intra-OS shortcut



This introduces a kind of Emulated-ISM device named loopback-ism for
SMCv2.1. The loopback-ism device is currently exclusive for SMC usage,
and aims to provide an SMC shortcut for sockets within the same kernel,
leading to improved intra-OS traffic performance. Configuration of this
feature is managed through the config SMC_LO.
