MINOR: ring: allow to reduce a ring size

In ring_resize() we used to check if the new ring was at least as large
as the previous one before resizing it, but what counts is that it's as
large as the previous one's contents. Initially it was thought this
would not really matter, but given that rings are initially created as
BUFSIZE, it's currently not possible to shrink them for debugging
purposes. Now with this change it is.
