This allows system-dpdk test suite to ping two namespaces via a veth
and dpdkvhostuser port, using testpmd as a forwarding agent.

For the initial test, testpmd included with 18.11-rc0 is used, while
ovs is linked against DPDK 17.11 LTS.

Some additional enhancements are added to the dpdk testsuite to make
it easier to use.

v5: 
* Added a --no-pci option as an additional argument to testpmd
* Edited --socket-mem to support multiple sockets for systems
* Tested on a single NUMA node system, works fine. Tried tests
on a multi-NUMA node system, either the system or testpmd
application looks to be faulty

  system-dpdk: Update test suite for non-phy testing

  system-dpdk: Use a different character marker for sed commands

Bala Sankaran (3):
  system-dpdk: Skip all tests if there are no hugepages
  system-dpdk: Convert /tmp to use OVS_RUNDIR
  system-dpdk: Connect network namespaces via dpdkvhostuser ports
