[dts] [PATCH] framework: enhance the tcpdump direction option parsing Some tcpdump versions (such as 4.9.0-5.el7) is providing help message about direction option with both '-P' and '-Q': " [ -Q|-P in|out|inout ]". This format cause option parse fail. This patch can enhance the direction option parsing and fix it.
