[PATCH] examples/multi_process: revert ports cleanup on exit

[Thomas Monjalon]

When closing the primary process, an error occurs when closing ports:

Error closing ports
EAL: failed to send to (/var/run/dpdk/dpdk_X/mp_socket_Y) due to Bad file descriptor
EAL: Fail to send request /var/run/dpdk/dpdk_X/mp_socket_Y:mp_malloc_sync
EAL: Could not send sync request to secondary process

And the secondary process crashes.

It may show several problems to fix in the next release.
Revert the fix causing these issues for 25.07 release.
