Cast an unified ring + storage area to a ring from area, without
reinitializing the data buffer. Reinitialize the waiters and the lock.
It helps retrieving a previously allocated ring, from an mmap for
example.
Instead of allocating two parts, one for the ring struct itself and
one for the storage area, ring_make_from_area() will arrange the two
inside the same memory area, with the storage starting immediately
after the struct. This will allow to store a complete ring state in
shared memory areas for example.
The ring watch flags (wait, seek end) were dangerously passed via ctx.cli.i0
from "show buf" in sink.c:cli_parse_show_events(), or implicitly reset in
"show errors". That's very unconvenient, difficult to follow, and prone to
short-term breakage.
Let's pass an extra argument to ring_attach_cli() to take these flags, now
defined in ring-t.h as RING_WF_*, and let the function set them itself
where appropriate (still ctx.cli.i0 for now).
