Comment:
Your invariant is the queue is empty when `head == tail` therefore the queue is 
full when `abs(tail - head) == mask`, so the correct calculation here is:

`num = mask - abs(tail - head);`

The effect is that a queue can only hold `size - 1` elements, otherwise you 
cannot distinguish between a full and an empty queue without another bit of 
metadata, which is a cost you're trying to avoid.

This is somewhat problematic if the caller is trying to be "optimal" by 
specifying a power of two in the `size` parameter of the `odp_queue_param_t` 
passed to `odp_queue_create()`. For this reason we may wish to return a 
`max_size` of a power of 2 - 1 in `odp_queue_capability()` as part of this 
patch series.
