The code aimed to pick and remember the value of
mempool ops name from EAL command line arguments does not
copy the string and remembers the pointer provided
by getopt_long() directly. The latter could be clobbered
later and result in reading wrong mbuf pool ops name
by rte_mempool library.
Typically, this flaw could be avoided by using strdup()
to remember the string value of the option.
