[COMMITTED 2.36] misc: Add support for Linux uio.h RWF_NOAPPEND flag

[Aurelien Jarno]

From: Stafford Horne <shorne@gmail.com>

In Linux 6.9 a new flag is added to allow for Per-io operations to
disable append mode even if a file was opened with the flag O_APPEND.
This is done with the new RWF_NOAPPEND flag.

This caused two test failures as these tests expected the flag 0x00000020
to be unused.  Adding the flag definition now fixes these tests on Linux
6.9 (v6.9-rc1).

  FAIL: misc/tst-preadvwritev2
  FAIL: misc/tst-preadvwritev64v2

This patch adds the flag, adjusts the test and adds details to
documentation.
