Make it possible to build agains DPDK installed in system instead of using submodule

Some users have DPDK already installed and built in their systems. It should be possible to reuse system libraries instead of building our own.

The biggest problem with this approach is that we require a specific version of DPDK to be installed. It is necessary because DPDK API changes from version to version and break compilation of our native code. We can support only just one DPDK version and we support the latest stable release that we maintain in dpdk submodule.
