dpdk: add intf tag to dev{} subinput

This patch allows to pass a tag when specifying
the dpdk `dev {  }` interface configuration.

It allows a control plane generating a vpp.conf
file to retreive the resulting mapping between
dpdk interfaces & sw_if_indices in VPP without
having to change the interface name exposed
to the user.

Type: feature
