[PATCH v2] eal: choose IOVA mode according to compilation flags

The DPDK can be compiled to be run in IOVA VA mode with
'enable_iova_as_pa=false' meson option. If there is no
explicit EAL --iova-mode parameter specified in the command
line the rte_eal_init() tried to deduce VA or PA mode without
taking into account the above mentioned compile time option,
resulting into initialization failure.
