Hi Connor,

For people new to dpdk/test-pmd, it may be hard to figure out these two
parameter is related to multi-process support. What do you think updating
the description to clarify these are for multi-process support?

        printf("  --nb-cores=N: set the number of forwarding cores "
               "(1 <= N <= %d).\n", nb_lcores);
        printf("  --nb-ports=N: set the number of forwarding ports "
