**- Why I did it**
PR https://github.com/Azure/sonic-platform-common/pull/102 modified the name of the SFF-8436 (QSFP) method to align the method name between all drivers, renaming it from `parse_qsfp_dom_capability` to `parse_dom_capability`. Once the submodule was updated, the callers using the old nomenclature broke. This PR updates all callers to use the new naming convention.
**- How I did it**
Update the name of the function globally for all calls into the SFF-8436 driver.
Note that the QSFP-DD driver still uses the old nomenclature and should be modified similarly. I will open a PR to handle this separately.
- Make PDDF code compliant with both Python 2 and Python 3
- Align code with PEP8 standards using autopep8
- Build and install both Python 2 and Python 3 PDDF packages

- Also fix Python 3-related issues:
- Use integer (floor) division in config_samples.py (sonic-config-engine)
- Replace print statement with print function in eeprom.py plugin for x86_64-kvm_x86_64-r0 platform
- Update all platform plugins to be compatible with both Python 2 and Python 3
- Remove shebangs from plugins files which are not intended to be executable
- Replace tabs with spaces in Python plugin files and fix alignment, because Python 3 is more strict
- Remove trailing whitespace from plugins files
This change introduces PDDF which is described here: https://github.com/Azure/SONiC/pull/536
Most of the platform bring up effort goes in developing the platform device drivers, SONiC platform APIs and validating them. Typically each platform vendor writes their own drivers and platform APIs which is very tailor made to that platform. This involves writing code, building, installing it on the target platform devices and testing. Many of the details of the platform are hard coded into these drivers, from the HW spec. They go through this cycle repetitively till everything works fine, and is validated before upstreaming the code.
PDDF aims to make this platform driver and platform APIs development process much simpler by providing a data driven development framework. This is enabled by:
JSON descriptor files for platform data
Generic data-driven drivers for various devices
Generic SONiC platform APIs
Vendor specific extensions for customisation and extensibility
