Description
Context
Need kernel-bypass storage api support.
Proposed Solution
Access NVME disk directly.
Alternative Solutions
Userspace nvme driver based on dpdk (like spdk).
It would be better if demikernel could support high level storage api (filesystem based on posix or userspace implementation).
### Tasks
- [ ] Storage api abstraction.
- [ ] Posix based storage api.
- [ ] Iouring based storage api.
- [ ] Dpdk based nvme driver and storage api.
