ring: remove split cacheline build setting

Users compiling DPDK should not need to know or care about the arrangement
of cachelines in the rte_ring structure.  Therefore just remove the build
option and set the structures to be always split. On platforms with 64B
cachelines, for improved performance use 128B rather than 64B alignment
since it stops the producer and consumer data being on adjacent cachelines.
