pkt_sched: gen_estimator: use 64 bit intermediate counters for bps
gen_estimator can overflow bps (bytes per second) with Gb links, while
it was designed with a u32 API, with a theorical limit of 34360Mbit
(2^32 bytes)
Using 64 bit intermediate avbps/brate counters can allow us to reach
this theorical limit.
