ring-buffer: Make sure event has enough room for extend and padding
Now that events only add time extends after it is committed, in case an event comes in before it can discard the allocated event, the time extend needs to be stored within the event. If the event is bigger than then size needed for the time extend, padding must be added. The minimum padding size is 8 bytes. Thus if the event is 12 bytes (size of time extend + 4), there will not be enough room to add both the time extend and padding. Make sure all events are either 8 bytes or 16 or more bytes.
