Use of vhostuser plugin

[edsealing]

A bit unclear from the README what the end result is for the host/container. Few questions:

• Is the project for creating OVS-DPDK/VPP containers themselves, or interfacing containers with a OVS-DPDK/VPP instance that is installed on the bare-metal?

• Does the vhostuser port appear as a standard interface (net0, eth0, etc) within the container?

• Are DPDK applications (e.g. testpmd) required to utilize the port within the container?

Thanks, and looking forward to testing it out!

Hi. I have another question, just want to make sure does the IPAM only works for VPP, not OVS/DPDK?

@edsealing @hwchiu: I think @kangasta has updated the README,md file on this.
