Now this feature is no longer supported by kernel side, (i40e kernel
driver doesn't support it from v2.3.2 and ixgbe kernel driver isn't
guaranteed to support this feature as well in the future), so remove the
Intel PMD examples to avoid confusion.

Having reference benchmarks is important in order to obtain
reproducible performance figures.
This patch describes required steps to configure a PVP setup
using testpmd in both host and guest.
Not relying on external vSwitch ease integration in a CI loop by
not being impacted by DPDK API changes.

Flow Bifurcation is a mechanism which uses features of advanced
Ethernet devices to split traffic between queues. It provides
the capability to let the kernel driver and DPDK driver co-exist
and take advantage of both.
It is achieved by using SR-IOV and the NIC's advanced filtering. This
patch describes Flow Bifurcation and adds the user guide for ixgbe
and i40e NICs.
