CSIT-661: re-add vring256 tuned CFS for vpp workers and guest-testpmd

1. add vhost tests (L2XBD, L2XC and IP4BASE) with vring set to 256 and
   tuned CFS setting
2. add vhost tests (L2XBD, L2XC and IP4BASE) with vring set to 256 and
   default CFS setting

+| ... | Guest is running DPDK testpmd interconnecting vhost-user interfaces
+| ... | using 5 cores pinned to cpus 5-9 and 2048M memory. Testpmd is using
+| ... | socket-mem=1024M (512x2M hugepages), 5 cores (1 main core and 4 cores

+| ... | *[Ver] TG verification:* TG finds and reports throughput NDR (Non Drop
+| ... | Rate) with zero packet loss tolerance or throughput PDR (Partial Drop
+| ... | Rate) with non-zero packet loss tolerance (LT) expressed in percentage
+| ... | of packets transmitted. NDR and PDR are discovered for different
+| ... | Ethernet L2 frame sizes using either binary search or linear search
+| ... | algorithms with configured starting rate and final step that determines
+| ... | throughput measurement resolution. Test packets are generated by TG on
+| ... | links to DUTs. TG traffic profile contains two L3 flow-groups
+| ... | (flow-group per direction, 253 flows per flow-group) with all packets
+| ... | containing Ethernet header, IPv4 header with IP protocol=61 and static
+| ... | payload. MAC addresses are matching MAC addresses of the TG node
+| ... | interfaces.
+| ... | *[Ref] Applicable standard specifications:* RFC2544.
