edb64ecbad test/perf/passt_udp: Drop threshold for 256B test
That test fails sometimes, it looks like iperf3 is still sending
initial messages that are too big. I'll need to figure out why,
but given that 256 bytes is not really an expected MTU, drop the
thresholds to zero for the moment being.

70c05e678e test/perf/passt_tcp: Drop iperf3 window size for host-to-guest tests
With a recent 5.15 kernel, passing a huge window size to iperf3 with
lower MTUs makes iperf3 stop sending packets after a few seconds --
I haven't investigated this in detail, but the window size will be
adjusted dynamically anyway and not passing it doesn't actually
affect throughput, so simply drop the option.

b8307a0a88 perf/passt_udp: Lower failure throughput thresholds with big MTUs
The throughput results in this test look quite variable, slightly
lower figures look reasonable anyway.

c3f8e4d2cd test/perf: Actually load passt enough to test UDP performance
With recent improvements, we're not CPU-bound at all while testing
UDP performance. Give the VM more memory and CPUs, forward two
additional ports, start up to four threads in parallel, and give
single iperf3 threads higher bandwidth targets.

6257a2752e test/perf: Try sourcing maximum scaling frequency from cpufreq
On most recent CPUs, that's a better indication of all-core turbo
frequency, or non-turbo frequency, than /proc/cpuinfo.

9df5027129 perf/passt_udp: Don't overshoot UDP bandwidth excessively on larger MTUs
...performance with 64KiB MTUs might look worse than with 9000bytes
on some configurations.

...we might see misleading rate drops with larger MTUs otherwise.

Get it to work also in nested virtualisation environments.
