dpdk: Support dpdk vhost-user client mode
Support of vhost-user client mode has been added for both
OVS and VPP. VSPERF configures vhost-user server mode
in vswitches by default for backward compatibility.
Support of vhost-user server mode is deprecated
in OVS and it can be removed in future releases. Once it will
happen, we have to change vsperf default behavior to
usage of vhost-user client ports at vswitch side.
This patch also fixes processing of boolean configuration
parameters passed via --test-params option. In the past
it was not possible to set boolean value to False through
--test-params option.
