(This is more an RFC)

Add arithmetic operations support for `Atomic<*mut T>`. Currently the
semantics of arithmetic atomic operation is the same as pointer
arithmetic, that is, e.g. `Atomic<*mut u64>::add(1)` is adding 8
(`size_of::<u64>`) to the pointer value.

In Rust std library, there are two sets of pointer arithmetic for
`AtomicPtr`:

* ptr_add() and ptr_sub(), which is the same as Atomic<*mut T>::add(),
  pointer arithmetic.

* byte_add() and byte_sub(), which use the input as byte offset to
  change the pointer value, e.g. byte_add(1) means adding 1 to the
  pointer value.

We can either take the approach in the current patch and add byte_add()
later on if needed, or start with ptr_add() and byte_add() naming.
