Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 3/5] eventdev: add ring structure for events

Add in a new rte_event_ring structure type and functions to allow events to
be passed core to core. This is needed because the standard rte_ring type
only works on pointers, while for events, we want to copy the entire, 16B
events themselves - not just pointers to them. The code makes extensive use
of the functions already defined in rte_ring.h
