macros, which are more complete than those provided by DPDK, and as such
it allows new instruction sets to be leveraged without having to do
extra work to set them up in DPDK.

ring: return remaining entry count when dequeuing

Add an extra parameter to the ring dequeue burst/bulk functions so that
those functions can optionally return the amount of remaining objs in the
ring. This information can be used by applications in a number of ways,
for instance, with single-consumer queues, it provides a max
dequeue size which is guaranteed to work.
