The primary driver was that the autotest binary could not be called "test"
any more, since that is a reserved name. When appending a dpdk prefix to
the test binary, I felt for consistency that other binaries should have a
dpdk prefix too, to indicate that they come from DPDK. If this is a
problem, we can remove the prefix from the binaries easily enough.
