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.

Adds option to enable promiscuous mode for Trex traffic
generator to allow for SR-IOV tests to work correctly.
Trex by default only accepts packets based on destination
MAC address matching what is configured on server in
/etc/trex-cfg.yaml. This removes that limitation since
SR-IOV tests require mac addresses to be modified in the
generated packets to correctly route packets to the relevant
VFs.

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".

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.

VSPERF makefiles were updated to automatically download and compile
VPP. VPP will not be installed into the OS, but it will be executed
from VSPERF's src subdirectory. Thus underlying OS is not affected
by VPP build required by VSPERF. It also allows quick switch among
different versions of various tools used by VSPERF.
As part of this patch, VERIFY and MERGE CI jobs were updated to
