[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v5 4/4] net/virtio-user: adding link speed devarg

virtio driver already parses speed devarg. virtio-user should add
it to list of valid devargs and call eth_virtio_dev_init function
which init speed value.

eth_virtio_dev_init already is called from virtio_user_pmd_probe
function. The only change is required to enable speed devargs:
adding speed to list of valid devargs.
