testapp_stats_rx_dropped() generates pkt_stream twice. The last generated is released by pkt_stream_restore_default() at the end of the test but we lose the pointer of the first pkt_stream.
Release the 'middle' pkt_stream when it's getting replaced to prevent memory leaks.

I don't see why this one is not addressed within test case (testapp_stats_rx_dropped()) and other fix is (testapp_xdp_shared_umem()).
pkt_stream_receive_half() can be used by other tests. I thought it would be more convenient for people writing testapp_*() functions if they didn't have to worry about releasing these kind of pointer themselves.
The same approach can't be used in testapp_xdp_shared_umem(), because we need to wait for the test to complete before releasing the pointers.
