Reload BCM SDK kmods on syncd start to handle syncd restart issues (#12804)

Why I did it
There is an issue on the Arista PikeZ platform (using T3.X2: BCM56274) while running SONiC. If the 'syncd' container in SONiC is restarted, the expected behaviour is that syncd will automatically restart/recover; however it does not and always fails at create_switch due to BCM SDK kmod DMA operation cancellation getting stuck.

Reloading the BCM SDK kmods allows the switch init to continue properly.

How I did it
If BCM SDK kmods are loaded, unload and load them again on syncd docker start script.

How to verify it
Steps to reproduce:

In SONiC, run 'docker ps' to see current running containers; 'syncd' should be present.
Run 'docker stop syncd'
Wait ~1 minute.
Run 'docker ps' to see that syncd is missing.
Check logs to see messages similar to the above.
