Description
Issue
There are no clear examples of how to use catnip (DPDK) on demikernel/examples/*
Firstly, I thought they are compatible with existing examples that work on catnap.
But when switching to catnip and trying to use any of these examples, it throws an error "Unsupported LibOS"
Solution
Add Catnip (DPDK) basic TCP and UDP usage examples to examples/*

Research direction
Start in demikernel/examples/* and compare the existing examples that work with catnap, then determine how Catnip (DPDK) selects its LibOS. Add basic TCP and UDP examples that run with Catnip without the “Unsupported LibOS” error, and verify both examples can be used successfully.
