ci: Skip VPP tests if needed

If VPP can't be executed properly, then VPP tests will be skipped
for VERIFY and MERGE jobs. It sometimes happens, that VPP can't
be executed at builders used for VERIFY & MERGE jobs execution.
These failures are not caused by patches themselves, but they
are blocking standard review & merge process. Thus VPP tests
will be suppressed in case that VPP can't be started at all.
This change is not related to DAILY job, which is executed
at POD dedicated to VSPERF project. It means that VPP tests
are always executed by DAILY job.

Newer versions of VPP require an explicit definition of CLI socket

paths: Modify algorithm for PATHS verification

VSPERF verifies if PATHS to the tools (vSwitch, VNF, etc.)
are valid. This check was modified to take into the account
tools required by selected testcase. It will help to avoid

load_gen: Supporting loading of load_gen via loader.

Currently all tools are loaded via loader utility, except load_gen.
Load_gens were loaded directly through component_factory.
This patch adds support to load load_gens through loader utility.

The changes are as follows:
1. Configuration changes:The common.conf include configuration of
   directory. testcases.conf includes changes to load configuration,
   where tool is no more part of the load-configuration. The
   custom.conf has configuration of LOADGEN to be used - this configuration
   replaces the earlier 'tool' configuration parameter.
2. loader_utility_changes:  In loader.py, loadgen_loader is
   defined, which is used in new get_loadgen function.
3. component_factory changes: in create_loadgen, similar
   to other tools, the function just retuns the object of loadgen_class.
4. Renaming of Dummy load_gen: Loader fails to load properly a dummy
   loadgen due to name-clash with dummy in pkt_gen. To avoid this name clash
   dummy is renamed to dummyloadgen.
5. testcase changes: create_loadgen is now called with output of
   loader's get_loadgen_class.
6. Fixed Pylint Errors and extra-space at the end.
7. Included CLI options support for --loadgen and --list-loadgens.
   Thanks to Martin K.
8. Added the missing loadgen parameter in testcases.conf.
9. Fixed the missing comma error.
10. Added CI change in build-vsperf.sh
11. Fixed configuration reading in stress/stress.py

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.
