  With recent versions of rdma-core, it becomes important to install
the library after its compilation.
If including rdma-core library from its build directory,
some non-standard compiler tricks are used.
When using an install directory for rdma-core, DPDK compilation is fine.

While at it, disabling unneeded pyVerbs and man pages.
