Background

As per discussion with @capsule-rs/maintainers, we'd like to have a good example leveraging DPDK's multi-process support, with a Capsule app being a secondary process.

One idea would involve a non-capsule primary DPDK application (e.g maybe testpmd, or something else?) that generates packets and forwards those packets to a secondary Capsule-written NF. Though, an issue here is be aware that both processes need to share the same DPDK versions.

The main use case we've seen usually revolves around Open vSwitch being the primary process with other secondary process in something like Capsule, etc...
