So this would suggest that VPP by default (that is, by doing 'yum install
vpp') will not have dpdk support, and vpp-plugins must also be installed to
add it, I would think dpdk plugin should be either packaged or installed
together with VPP by default, and can be disabled if desired.

In any case, will deployment model stay this way? I'll need to make changes
to puppet module to include other packages if that's how it will be going
forward. Also, dpdk section should be commented out in the config file so
we can start VPP service using the default config.

Thanks
Feng
