[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v7] app/pdump: add pudmp exits with primary support

[Suanming.Mou <mousuanming@huawei.com>]

When primary app exits, the residual running pdump will stop the
primary app to restart. Add pdump exits with primary support.

Signed-off-by: Suanming.Mou <mousuanming@huawei.com>

V7:
* omit `else` in monitor_primary.
* add eixting due to primary is not alive message.
* add pdump.rst update.
