Changed the factory method for creating interactive apps in the SUT Node
so that EAL parameters would only be passed into DPDK apps since
non-DPDK apps wouldn't be able to process them. Also modified
interactive apps to allow for the ability to pass parameters into the
app on startup so that the applications can be started with certain
configuration steps passed on the command line.

I ended up reverting part of this back to making the argument for
eal_parameters allowed to be a string. This was because it was casuing
mypy errors where the method signatures of sut_node did not match with
that of node.
