When debugging performance of a DPDK application the user may
need to view the different statistics of DPDK(for example out_of_buffer)
This can be enabled by using testpmd command 'show port xstats
<port_id>' for example.
The current implementation assumes legacy mode in which the
counters
are at <ibdev_path>/<port_id>/hw_counters/<file_name>.
In switchdev mode the counters file is located right after the device
name, hence resides at <ibdev_path>/hw_counters.
The fix tries to open the path in the second location after a failure
to open the file from the first location.
