this file tends to use printf for logs.

Please update cmd_help_long_parsed() to add new commands.

I am for grouping port related commands under "port" command, these are all OK
in their context, but when you look into all testpmd command it turns into mess.

What do you think for:
port representor add <pf_address> <vport_id>
port representor del <pf_address> <vport_id>
