This patchset refactors the present INSTALL.DPDK.md guide.

The INSTALL guide is split in to two documents named INSTALL.DPDK and
INSTALL.DPDK-ADVANCED. The former document is simplified with emphasis
on installation, basic testcases and targets novice users. Sections on
system configuration, performance tuning, vhost walkthrough and IVSHMEM
are moved to DPDK-ADVANCED guide.
