I replaced patch 5 with the alternative that I sent yesterday.
Series applied.

We now have dpdk-test and dpdk-testpmd built with MSVC in the CI.
We are still missing net/null and mempool/ring to do some basic test
like devtools/test-null.sh.
On the other hand, what prevents us from running the fast-tests
testsuite in the CI?
