[dpdk-ci] Upgraded DTS Version for NXP

Hi everyone,

It seems that the DTS instance on the community lab's NXP system uses
a DTS that is internal to your bitbucket which makes it unable to be
pulled for the new changes.
I have gotten past the point of compiling DPDK manually, but DTS is
still the outdated version that relies on make.

I have attempted to use a new, clean version of DTS pulled directly
from the repo, but I am having a bit of trouble with setting it up.
Which interfaces are used for testing between the DUT and the tester?
The ports I have found within the conf/ports.cfg file do not seem to
match up.
It also seems that mydut.py and project_mydut.py change the behavior
of DTS itself.

Could someone help look into this issue?

Thanks,
Brandon
