The unit tests can be disabled in DPDK in a couple of ways. Firstly, there is the original "tests" boolean option - when set to false, the tests are skipped as part of the build. However, the newer enable_apps/disable_apps options also can be used to disable the tests [you can disable using the "enable" option by omitting "tests" from the list to enable].
This duplication of functionality is unnecessary, so let's remove the standalone tests option.
