I only backported the same fix done in app/meson.build since,
currently, app/test/meson.build adds a rpath to "lib64/dpdk/pmd-20.0"
that doesn't exists since, in this case, it should be
"../lib64/dpdk/pmd-20.0" on Fedora, or
"../lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dpdk/pmds-20.0" on Debian.

If we want relative paths we should change "install_rpath:" line on
app/meson.build too.

Debian workarounded that bug by stripping rpaths from dpdk-test [1],
but I'd like to avoid doing that on Fedora/RHEL too, when we'll
migrate to meson, since currently check-rpaths (invoked by rpmbuild) is
complaining about the invalid rpath:

ERROR   0002: file '/usr/bin/dpdk-test' contains an invalid rpath
'lib64/dpdk/pmds-20.0' in [lib64/dpdk/pmds-20.0]
