[v2] app/testpmd: fix issue with memory leaks when quit testpmd
Checks
Commit Message
when dpdk is compiled in ASan, there is a memory leaks after
quit testpmd if set mcast_addr, this patch fix this issue.
Error info as following:

The memory leak is present regardless of ASan being compiled in.
Plus, afaiu, the issue happens too when closing a port.
I'd rather rephrase like:
"""
A multicast address pool is allocated for a port when using mcast_addr
testpmd commands.
When closing a port or stopping testpmd, this pool was not freed,
resulting in a leak.
This issue has been caught using ASan.
Free this pool when closing the port.

Nit: I would introduce a helper in app/test-pmd/config.c, for example,
mcast_addr_pool_destroy.

Is port->mc_addr_pool located in shared memory and may it be freed in primary process?
BTW, you can write a function in config.c such as mcast_addr_pool_extend() and reference in close_port().
