Currently, the only way of supplying device argument to a pci device is
to whitelist it i.e. -w 000X:00:0X.0,self_test=1. This is not a very
feasible method as whitelisting a device has its own side effects.

Add a new eal command line option --pci-args to pass device args without
the need to whitelist the devices.
