[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] doc: fix parameter of virtio_user for container

[Yong Wang]

Update the "Virtio_user for Container Networking" doc, add the
"--file-prefix" option to testpmd in host and container to avoid
hugepage config file conflict.

Fixes: 50665deebda0 ("doc: add guide to use virtio-user for container networking")

---
v2:
* Modify the fixline from two lines to one line.
* Remove the unnecessary "_" in "--file-prefix" option.

The three-dashes denotes the end of the commit log. Anything below it
(including your Signed-off-by) will be discarded while apply. That said,
you should put the change log under the "---" after your SoB.

Besides, if someone gave you Acked-by, Reviewed-by or Tested-by and
you were requested to make some minor changes, you could carry the
tag for later versions. Which means, you could (and should) add both
my and John's Acked-by after your SoB for v3.
