For the initialization of a ring page by the frontend two macros are
available in ring.h: SHARED_RING_INIT() and FRONT_RING_INIT().

All known users use always both of them in direct sequence.

Add another macro XEN_FRONT_RING_INIT() combining the two macros.

- modify comment (Jan Beulich)
- drop underscores from macro parameters (Jan Beulich)

... I had hoped for the original text to remain and the new macro
being suggested as a shorthand. But you're the maintainer ...

I prefer the single macro, as it is less code and has the proper
name space.
