  Do not exit the application if power library fails to initialize
or high performance cores configuration cannot be used - this was the
behavior of the application before the patch that added the high/regular
performance option and also this is the normally expected behavior, the
application can be used with no power options, i.e. test framework.

Fixes: f88e7c175a68 ("examples/l3fwd-power: add high/regular perf cores options")

v3: updated commit msg
v2: updated init_power_library to return error code if any core init fails

After further internal discussions we will revise the behavior of the 
app when exiting due to failed init.
We will try to get a new patch for 18.11.
