igb: fix stats handling
There are currently some problems with igb.

- On 32bit arches, maintaining 64bit counters without proper
synchronization between writers and readers.

- Stats updated every two seconds, as reported by Jesper.
   (Jesper provided a patch for this)

- Potential problem between worker thread and ethtool -S

This patch uses u64_stats_sync, and convert everything to be 64bit safe,
SMP safe, even on 32bit arches. It integrates Jesper idea of providing
accurate stats at the time user reads them.
