Log Message:
-----------
Add one more trace message to the torture_rcu_high test

It is interesting that in the very rare cases, where this
test failure has been observed so far, the rcu torture value
went always backwards to 0. This could be either due to
ossl_rcu_deref(&writer_ptr) returning NULL, or the initial
value of "new = CRYPTO_zalloc(sizeof(uint64_t), NULL, 0)"
still visible despite ossl_rcu_assign_ptr(&writer_ptr, &new)
immediatley after the "*new = global_ctr++" statement.
Add one additional trace message to find out what exactly
happens here, when it happens again.
Additionally, we do no longer initialize the new value to
zero but something else, so it can also be detected.
