[PATCH 01/10] eal: add workaround for __builtin_constant_p

[Andre Muezerie <andremue@linux.microsoft.com>]

There's no MSVC equivalent for compiler extension __builtin_constant_p.
EAL already had __rte_constant which was used as a first attempt to
workaround __builtin_constant_p when using MSVC. However, there are
pieces of code that would benefit from being able to provide a default
value to be used instead of it being always 0 like how it was done by
__rte_constant.

A new macro is added here allowing such default to be provided by the
caller.
