Jia He 39368ebfc6 ring: introduce C11 memory model barrier option
This patch is to support C11 memory model barrier in librte_ring.

There are 2 barrier implementation options in librte_ring (suggested
by Jerin).
1. use rte_smp_rmb
2. use load_acquire/store_release(refer to [1]).
The reason why providing 2 options is the performance benchmark
difference in different arm machines, refer to [2].

CONFIG_RTE_RING_USE_C11_MEM_MODEL is provided, and by default it is "n"
on any architectures and only "y" on arm64 so far.
