This commit adds support for pensando asic called ELBA. ELBA is used in pci based cards and in smartswitches.
#### Why I did it
This commit introduces pensando platform which is based on ELBA ASIC.

#### How I did it
Created platform/pensando folder and created makefiles specific to pensando.
This mainly creates pensando docker (which OEM's need to download before building an image) which has all the userspace to initialize and use the DPU (ELBA ASIC).
Output of the build process creates two images which can be used from ONIE and goldfw.
Recommendation is use to use ONIE.
#### How to verify it
Load the SONiC image via ONIE or goldfw and make sure the interfaces are UP.
##### Description for the changelog
Add pensando platform support.
Maximum RAM availability for NOS to SONiC migration using raw image in Dell S6100 is 1700MB.
Raw images larger than that cannot be used for NOS to SONiC migration.
Why I did it
docker folder size on 202305 image is more than 1.5G. larger than the max size of docker ramfs size.

How I did it
Update the docker ramfs size from 1500M to 2500M
How to verify it
Boot 202305 image.
Why I did it
Pre-requisite: #8269
To be able to generate multi-asic KVM image.
To provide flexibility to generate single asic or both single and multi-asic images.
How I did it
Add a new build param, BUILD_MULTIASIC_KVM, if set to "y", the multi-asic VS target KVM images will be generated. If not, only single asic VS image will be generated.
Make changes to build_image.sh to generate 4-asic and 6-asic KVM images if BUILD_MULTIASIC_KVM parameter is set to y
How to verify it
Generate single-asic VS as currently done, no change in build steps:
make configure PLATFORM=vs
make target/sonic-vs.img.gz - will generate only single asic KVM image.
make BUILD_MULTIASIC_KVM=y target/sonic-vs.img.gz - will generate single asic and multi-asic KVM images.
should generate:
sonic-vs.bin
sonic-vs.img.gz
sonic-4asic-vs.img.gz
sonic-6asic-vs.img.gz
Introduce new sonic-buildimage images for Broadcom DNX ASIC family.
sonic-broadcom-dnx.bin
sonic-aboot-broadcom-dnx.swi
How I did it
NO CHANGE to existing make commands
make init; make configure PLATFORM=broadcom; make target/sonic-aboot-broadcom.swi; make target/sonic-broadcom.bin
The difference now is that it will result in new broadcom images for DNX asic family as well.
sonic-broadcom.bin, sonic-broadcom-dnx.bin
sonic-aboot-broadcom.swi, sonic-aboot-broadcom-dnx.swi
Note: This PR also adds support for Broadcom SAI 5.0 (based on 1.8 SAI ) for DNX based platform + changes in platform x86_64-arista_7280cr3_32p4 bcm config files and platform_env.conf files
Images built from master branch and installed on devices where we mount /var/lib/docker in RAM (because the HDD is small) were failing to boot properly. The Docker service failed to start because /var/lib/docker was filled to 100%. This is due to the increase in total number of containers in the image.
As of today, /var/lib/docker contains 1.3 GB of data. Therefore, this PR increases the size of the ramdisk to 1.5 GB to accommodate all the containers. Example output below from an Arista-7050-QX32 SKU:
```
admin@sonic:~$ df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
...
tmpfs 1.5G 1.3G 172M 89% /var/lib/docker
...
```
when device disk is small, do not unzip dockerfs.tar.gz on disk.
keep the tar file on the disk, unzip to tmpfs in the initrd phase.
enabled this for 7050-qx32

* Reduce SONiC migration partition from 8G to 1G.
* Changes to create 1G partition with ability to resize post migration.
* Remove redundant changes in varlog
* Use findfs to interpret root. Move resize in case cmdline params are reordered
1. "make target/sonic-broadcom.raw" will create the compressed dd'able image.
2. This will also update the grub config files (device/dell/*/nos_to_sonic_grub.cfg) with the image versions.
* Single image
* Fix review comments
* Update syncd service. Add HW mgmt to Mellanox single image.
* Add single image template for Broadcom platform.
SKU should be provided during configure:
make configure PLATFORM=broadcom SKU=Force10-S6000
* Add single image template for Cavium platform.
SKU should be provided during configure:
make configure PLATFORM=cavium SKU=AS7512
* Add description to sonic_debian_extension.j2 file.
