tests: L3, L4 and VxLAN tests for OVS & VPP

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".

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.

ci: Fix VPP back2back TCs

There was a generic issue with restoration of original environment
after execution of testcase. Thus in case that multiple tests were
executed, their settings could be corrupted. This issue was detected
after VPP testcases were added into VSPERF DAILY CI job.

There were two issues:

* setttings.load_from_dict() method was used to restore original
  configuration values; However this method updates dict content
  with supplied values. If TC has introduced new dict item,
  then it was not removed from settings after TC execution
  and modified settings was applied also for next test(s).
* test configuration passed to testcase constructor is used
  for initialization of TC members, which are later updated;
  As python does shallow copy on dict members by default,
  modification of such testcase members led to corruption
  of configuration of other testcases. Thus deepcopy of testcase
  configuration was introduced into vsperf constructor to
  avoid TC configuration corruption.

Support of VPP was implemented into VSPERF. Initial implementation
uses step driven testcases to configure P2P, PVP and PVVP network
scenarios. These testcases were prepared for three RFC2544 traffic
types, i.e. throughput, continuous stream and back to back.
VPP configuration is driven by new configuration option VSWITCH_VPP_ARGS.
It is possible to use three types of l2 port connection supported
by VPP, i.e. l2 xconnect (default), l2patch and l2 bridge features.
Configuration is driven by parameter VSWITCH_VPP_L2_CONNECT_MODE.
