ring_{rx,tx}: verbose: output version and v3 specific info
Kevin says: With netsniff-ng 0.5.8-rc2+, when I run the below packet capture session, the output seems to imply that 64K of memory is being allocated per frame, which does not look like what I want since my interface MTU is only 1500. This appears to be severely limiting the number of frames I can fit into my packet capture ring. As TPACKET_V3 is used in capturing to pcap files, frames are written continuously to the ring, thus the above will give a wrong impression to the user. Therefore, output such information in verbose mode differently when TPACKET_V3 is being used, as it works block-wise.
