After the fix of SCAPY library import, it was not possible to use
some of the network protocols by T-Rex. T-Rex 2.38 uses by default
SCAPY 2.3.1 for python3, but it overrides the default set of network
protocols loaded by layers/all.py. VSPERF makefile was modified to
restore original version of all.py from SCAPY 2.3.1 git repository.
Also examples of scapy usage were updated to generate correct traffic
with modified scapy version.

T-Rex implementation in vsperf was improved to support:
* SCAPY frame definition, so additional network protocols
can be generated by T-Rex and sent towards DUT
* VLAN configuration defined by TRAFFIC['vlan']
* enable or disable L2, L3, L4 and VLAN protocols
as configured by TRAFFIC dictionary
VSPERF documentation was updated with examples of SCAPY
frame definition usage.

The patch expands the vsperf --test-params argument with list
functionality, which enables running multiple tests with different
parameters. If more tests are run then parameters provided, the
last parameters will be reused. Example:
./vsperf --test-params "['','TRAFFICGEN_PKTSIZE = (64,)']"
phy2phy_cont phy2phy_cont
CUMULATIVE_PARAMS if true, instead of using the default settings,
each test will take the parameters of the previous test before
applying it's own.
The patch also adds the vsperf --matrix argument which analyzes and
compares the results of all the tests run, printing it as a table,
as well as saving it into a file in the results directory.
MATRIX_METRIC metric used by Performance Matrix to compare tests.

Adds configuration options and logic to detect maximum supported
speed of T-Rex server side cards.
1. Adds logic to pull maximum supported speed from port info
2. Adds forcable option to have user specify maximum speed
3. If logic cannot detect speed from port_info because it is
not available or the forcable option is not set it will
assume 10G speeds.
4. Tested on Intel XXV25G and Mellanox ConnectX-5 cards
5. Added packet structure logging to show packet info for
better debugging capabilities
6. Adds core mask to take advantage of multiple cores if
server is started with more than default number of cores
7. Adds packets lost logging to RFC2544 Throughput testing

Traffic can be captured also at DUT side. Two options are supported by
vsperf:
1) Traffic is captured inside VM after it has been processed
by vSwitch. This can be used for verification of vSwitch frame
modification functionality, including HW offloading at ingress side.
2) Another NIC under the test (NIC2) is added into standard VSPERF DUT
setup. Traffic is then forwarded from TGen through NIC and vSwitch
to NIC2 and then over patch cable back to NIC2, the vSwitch, NIC and
to the traffic generator. This setup supports also verification of HW
offloading at egress side of NIC2 and thus it can be used for validation
of smart NICS.
Both options above are traffic generator agnostic if compared to direct
support of traffic capture by traffic generator. This patch introduces
example testcases for both options.
Detailed documentation will be pushed as a standalone patch.

A set of tests was introduced with focus on L3, L4 and VxLAN performance
of OVS and VPP. New testcases were created for phy2phy network scenario.
In case of PVP and PVVP, only OVS testcases are available.
Notes:
* two sets of OVS P2P testcases were created, one creates unique flow
for each IP address involved in the test (performance sensitive);
Second set inserts just one flow with large network mask (tests with
_mask suffix).
* three different types of VPP P2P L3 testcases were created to
demonstrate performance impact of multi ARP entries or IP routes.
* VPP multi ARP record based testcases use a set of "workarounds"
to load a large number of ARP entries. It is not possible to use
"set ip arp count" syntax, as it doesn't work well for large count
values (e.g. 60K)
* OVS VxLAN testcases utilize existing OP2P deployment scenario and thus
it can be used also with GRE and GENEVE tunnel types. Tunnel type
to be used is defined by test configuration option "Tunnel Type".
