I guess this should work, but it's a bit strange that we need to key off
something like dpdk-devbind.py.  Not a complaint, just an observation.

Maybe a future change would be to update the meson.build to set the
exec_prefix variable - but I guess for now that might be a much bigger
change.  But it means we could get the path after setting the pkgconfig
path and then just run something like:

  pkg-config libdpdk --variable=exec_prefix

and wouldn't need to search for the python utility.

As I wrote - it's a more involved change, and I don't think it should
hold up this patch.  Just something to consider for the future (maybe
Michael or I could look at it)
