Integration docs: HelloWorld and other basic examples.
This patch adds to Integration docs some simple testcase examples like a HelloWorld. The purpose is to show how to use some basic features: rules on L3/L4 fields, MultiStream, Multi-VM setup. Patch Set 2: removed trailing whitespaces. Patch Set 3: moved the examples to the middle of the file to avoid potential conflicts with the VxLan TC patch from Sugesh. Patch Set 4: fix typo. Patch Set 5: added descriptions on each example. Patch Set 6: reworked description for VM Replacement TC.

+HelloWorld and other basic Testcases
+------------------------------------
+
+The following examples are for demonstration purposes.
+You can run them by copying and pasting into the
+conf/integration/01_testcases.conf file.
+A command-line instruction is shown at the end of each
+example.
+
+HelloWorld
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The first example is a HelloWorld testcase.
+It simply creates a bridge with 2 physical ports, then sets up a flow to drop
+incoming packets from the port that was instantiated at the STEP #1.
+There's no interaction with the traffic generator.
+Then the flow, the 2 ports and the bridge are deleted.
+'add_phy_port' method creates a 'dpdk' type interface that will manage the
+physical port. The string value returned is the port name that will be referred
+by 'del_port' later on.

+
+Specify a Flow by the IP address
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The next example shows how to explicitly set up a flow by specifying a
+destination IP address.
+All packets received from the port created at STEP #1 that have a destination
+IP address = 90.90.90.90 will be forwarded to the port created at the STEP #2.

+
+Multistream feature
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The next testcase uses the multistream feature.
+The traffic generator will send packets with different UDP ports.
+That is accomplished by using "Stream Type" and "MultiStream" keywords.
+4 different flows are set to forward all incoming packets.

+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This example launches a 1st VM in a PVP topology, then the VM is replaced
+by another VM.
+When VNF setup parameter in ./conf/04_vnf.conf is "QemuDpdkVhostUser"
+'add_vport' method creates a 'dpdkvhostuser' type port to connect a VM.
