bring up chassisdb service on sonic switch according to the design in
Distributed Forwarding in VoQ Arch HLD

**- Why I did it**
To bring up new ChassisDB service in sonic as designed in ['Distributed forwarding in a VOQ architecture HLD' ](90c1289eaf/doc/chassis/architecture.md).
**- How I did it**
Implement the section 2.3.1 Global DB Organization of the VOQ architecture HLD.
**- How to verify it**
ChassisDB service won't start without chassisdb.conf file on the existing platforms.
ChassisDB service is accessible with global.conf file in the distributed arichitecture.

Copying platform.json file into an empty /usr/share/sonic/platform directory does not mimic an actual device. A more correct approach is to create a /usr/share/sonic/platform symlink which links to the actual platform directory; this is more like what is done inside SONiC containers. Then, we only need to copy the platform.json file into the actual platform directory; the symlink takes care of the alternative path, and also exposes all the other files in the platform directory.
sonic-py-common package relies on the `PLATFORM` environment variable to be set at runtime in the SONiC VS container. Exporting the variables in the start.sh script causes the variables to only be available to the shell running start.sh and any subshells it spawns. However, once the script exits, the variable is lost. This is resulting in the failure of tests which are run in the VS container, as they call applications which in turn call sonic-py-common functions which rely on PLATFORM to be set.
Setting the environment variables in the Dockerfile allows them to persist through the entire runtime of the container.
Add a master switch so that the sync/async mode can be configured.
Example usage of the switch:
1. Configure mode while building an image
`make ENABLE_SYNCHRONOUS_MODE=y <target>`
2. Configure when the device is running
Change CONFIG_DB with `sonic-cfggen -a '{"DEVICE_METADATA":{"localhost": {"synchronous_mode": "enable"}}}' --write-to-db`
Restart swss with `systemctl restart swss`
- Reverts commit 457674c
- Creates "platform.json" for vs docker
- Adds test case for port breakout CLI
- Explicitly sets admin status of all the VS interfaces to down to be compatible with SWSS test cases, specifically vnet tests and sflow tests

Swap order of orchagent and portsyncd in start.sh and fix priorities
Many docker virtual switch tests are failing at the moment because orchagent never finishes initializing. After doing some searching I figured out that Ethernet24 is never published to State DB, which is reminiscent of #4821

Applications running in the host OS can read the platform identifier from /host/machine.conf. When loading configuration, sonic-config-engine *needs* to read the platform identifier from machine.conf, as it it responsible for populating the value in Config DB.
When an application is running inside a Docker container, the machine.conf file is not accessible, as the /host directory is not mounted. So we need to retrieve the platform identifier from Config DB if get_platform() is called from inside a Docker
container. However, we can't simply check that we're running in a Docker container because the host OS of the SONiC virtual switch is running inside a Docker container. So I refactored `get_platform()` to:
1. Read from the `PLATFORM` environment variable if it exists (which is defined in a virtual switch Docker container)
2. Read from machine.conf if possible (works in the host OS of a standard SONiC image, critical for sonic-config-engine at boot)
3. Read the value from Config DB (needed for Docker containers running in SONiC, as machine.conf is not accessible to them)
- Also fix typo in daemon_base.py
- Also changes to align `get_hwsku()` with `get_platform()`
- Created the VS setup to test DPB functionality
- Created "platform.json" for VS docker
- Added test case for Breakout CLI

virtual-chassis test uses multiple vs instances to simulate a
modular switch and a redis-chassis service is required to run on
the vs instance that represents a supervisor card.
This change allows vs docker start redis-chassis service according
to external config file.
**- Why I did it**
To support virtual-chassis setup, so that we can test distributed forwarding feature in virtual sonic environment, see `Distributed forwarding in a VOQ architecture HLD` pull request at https://github.com/Azure/SONiC/pull/622
**- How I did it**
The sonic-vs start.sh is enhanced to start new redis_chassis service if external chassis config file found. The config file doesn't exist in current vs environment, start.sh will behave like before.
**- How to verify it**
The swss/test still pass. The chassis_db service is verified in virtual-chassis topology and tests which are in following PRs.

currently, vs docker always create 32 front panel ports.
when vs docker starts, it first detects the peer links
in the namespace and then setup equal number of front panel
interfaces as the peer links.

- Move front panel ports and port channels MTU and IP configurations out of
the current /etc/network/interfaces file and store them in the configuration
database.
- The default MTU value for both front panel ports and the port channels is
9100. They are set via the minigraph or 9100 by default.
- Introduce portmgrd which will pick up the MTU configurations from the
configuration database.
- The updated intfmgrd will pick up IP address changes from the configuration
database.
- Update sonic-swss submodule
