For 64-bit systems, at current CPU speeds, 64-bit head and tail indexes
will not wrap-around within the author's lifetime. This is important to
avoiding the ABA problem -- in which a thread mistakes reading the same
tail index in two accesses to mean that the ring was not modified in the
intervening time -- in the upcoming lock-free ring implementation. Using a
64-bit index makes the possibility of this occurring effectively zero. This
commit uses pointer-width indexes so the lock-free ring can support 32-bit
systems as well.

This commit places the new producer and consumer structures in the same
location in struct rte_ring as their 32-bit counterparts. Since the 32-bit
versions are padded out to a cache line, there is space for the new
structure without affecting the layout of struct rte_ring. Thus, the ABI is
preserved.
