In the current implementation this is possible, as the application can register a service. The app then configures all services (including its own "app-service") to run on a service lcore.

Then we could move the registration functions to service.h.
IMO, It does not look correct if we expose _prviate.h to application or
we could rename to service_component.h or something like that.
