    evl: add mapper element · f325f585

    A file supporting the memory mapping operation can be bound to a
    mapper element, so that mmap() on such element's device is
    transparently handed to the original file implementation.
    
    This is particularly useful for exposing a shared memory file created
    by memfd_create() into the globally visible EVL device namespace, so
    that cooperating processes can find it easily without resorting to fd
    inheritance or socket transmission.
