VPP interface stats client
==========================
This is a source code and a binary of a ‘thin client’ to collect,
aggregate and expose VPP interface stats through VPP stats socket API.
It also provides some information about the installed VPP version.

through a simple executable client with no dependencies.
example use case: where VPP runs in a container that can’t expose the
socket API to the host level
