[PATCH v5 2/2] dts: add send_packets to test_suite

[jspewock@iol.unh.edu]

From: Jeremy Spewock <jspewock@iol.unh.edu>

Currently the only methods provided in the test suite class for sending
packets capture the resulting received traffic after sending. There is,
in some cases, a need to send multiple packets at once while not really
needing to capture any of said received traffic. It is favorable to
avoid capturing received traffic when you don't need it since not all
traffic generators will necessarily be capturing traffic generators.
The method to fulfill this need exists in the traffic generator
already, but this patch exposes the method to test suites.
