The nvme-io_uring driver expects a character special file such as
/dev/ng0n1. Follow the convention of having a "filename" option when a
regular file is expected, and a "path" option otherwise.
This makes io_uring the only libblkio-based driver with a "filename"
option, as it accepts a regular file (even though it can also take a
block special file).

Maybe we can update the "path" description with something similar to
what we have in the libblkio docs:
path to the NVMe namespace's character device (e.g., `/dev/ng0n1`).
Thanks,
