In current version, we are setting the ports
using portmask. With portmask, we can use only
upto 64 ports. This portlist option enables the user
to use more than 64 ports.
Now we can specify the ports in 2 different ways
- Using portmask (-p [0x]nnn): mask must be in hex format
- Using portlist in the following format
--portlist <p1>[-p2][,p3[-p4],...]
--portmask 0x2 is same as --portlist 1
--portmask 0x3 is same as --portlist 0-1

v9:
removed the isblank() check.
updated the comments.
fixed a bug which takes the range correctly.
v8:
changed the data types of the variables.
optimised the code by checking for blank spaces
only once.
v7:
moved the port validation outside the parser function.
added meaningful comments describing the new functionality.
renamed the variables with meaningful names
v6:
optimized the code to check for duplicates
v5:
added a check to validate the ports available before
setting them. also added comments in the testpmd file
for the new function
v4:
the parser is modified so that we don't ues 2 arrays
to convert the listed port values
v3:
squashed the 2 patches and made it 1 patch with
changes only in testpmd. Also working on optmizing
the parser
v2:
moved the parser function to testpmd
