Documentation: Fix DPDK qos example.

Fix the example use case based on the decription.
EIR and CIR are measured in bytes/sec and considered 64-byte
IP packets size withtout 14-byte Ethernet header.
So fix the 1000pps example by: (64 - 14) * 1000 = 50,000
If the frame includes 4-byte FCS header, then it's
(64 - 14 - 4) * 1000 = 46,000

 For example, the following configuration will limit the traffic rate at a
