Current APIs assume ring elements to be pointers. However, in many
use cases, the size can be different. Add new APIs to support
configurable ring element sizes.

My initial thinking was that it could be a static inline functions
instead of macros. I see that patches 5 and 6 are changing it. I wonder
however if patches 5 and 6 shouldn't be merged and moved before this
one: it would avoid to introduce new macros that will be removed after.

The comment "It must be a multiple of 4" and "Currently, sizes 4, 8 and 16 are
supported" are redundant (it appears several times in the file). The second one
should be removed by patch 5 (I think it is missing?).

But if patch 5 and 6 are moved before this one, only "It must be a multiple of
4" would be needed I think, and there would be no transition with only 3
supported sizes.

Patch 2, 5 and 6 implement different methods to do the copy of elements. We can drop 5, as 6 proves to be better than 5 in my tests. The question on choosing between 2 and 6 is still open. If we go with 2, I will convert the macros into inline functions.

(refer to the comment above) if 2 is chosen, then, I would like to remove the restriction of limited sizes by adding a for loop around the 32b copy. 64b and 128b will remain the same to meet the existing performance.
