 * RTE Argument parsing
 *
 * This module can be used to parse arguments whose format is
 * key1=value1;key2=value2;key3=value3;...
 *
 * The same key can appear several times with the same or a different
 * value. Indeed, the arguments are stored as a list of key/values
 * associations and not as a dictionary.
 *
 * This file provides some helpers that are especially used by virtual
 * ethernet devices at initialization for arguments parsing.
