enable dpdk autotests as dep8 tests
The autotests we bundle can be used on machines able to run DPDK. But sadly almost none of them can run inside most common build environments which makes it unavailable for a classic "dh_autotest". But we can define certain characteristics of an dep8 test. In there at least the majority of the tests runs fine. So this adds the autotests as dep8 test. To do so it defines the test as "isolation-machine, needs-root", but even then checks further required capabilities like sse3 and the required huge pages. If prereqs are not met it exits by skipping the test, which counts as PASS. The tests can run successful e.g. with an autopkgtest call that adds the required CPU characteristics. To do so run it like usual but with: autopkgtest [...] -- qemu --qemu-options='-cpu qemu64,+ssse3' [...] So far only amd64 is supported and as mentioned before only if the prereqs are met. But it is written in a way that this can be the groundwork for any other architecture that wants to enable the autotests as well.
