- Support for non-template based FRR configurations (BGP, route-map, OSPF, static route..etc) using config DB schema.
- Support for save & restore - Jinja template based config-DB data read and apply to FRR during startup
**- How I did it**
- add frrcfgd service
- when frr_mgmg_framework_config is set, frrcfgd starts in bgp container
- when user changed the BGP or other related table entries in config DB, frrcfgd will run corresponding VTYSH commands to program on FRR.
- add jinja template to generate FRR config file to be used by FRR daemons while bgp container restarted
**- How to verify it**
1. Add/delete data on config DB and then run VTYSH "show running-config" command to check if FRR configuration changed.
1. Restart bgp container and check if generated FRR config file is correct and run VTYSH "show running-config" command to check if FRR configuration is consistent with attributes in config DB

**- Why I did it**
We were building a custom version of Supervisor because I had added patches to prevent hangs and crashes if the system clock ever rolled backward. Those changes were merged into the upstream Supervisor repo as of version 3.4.0 (http://supervisord.org/changes.html#id9), therefore, we should be able to simply install the vanilla package via pip. This will also allow us to easily move to Python 3, as Python 3 support was added in version 4.0.0.
**- How I did it**
- Remove Makefiles and patches for building supervisor package from source
- Install Python 3 supervisor package version 4.2.1 in Buster base container
- Also install Python 3 version of supervisord-dependent-startup in Buster base container
- Debian package installed binary in `/usr/bin/`, but pip package installs in `/usr/local/bin/`, so rather than update all absolute paths, I changed all references to simply call `supervisord` and let the system PATH find the executable to prevent future need for changes just in case we ever need to switch back to build a Debian package, then we won't need to modify these again.
- Install Python 2 supervisor package >= 3.4.0 in Stretch and Jessie base containers
Calls to sonic-cfggen is CPU expensive. This PR reduces calls to
sonic-cfggen to two calls during startup when starting frr service.

* Changes to make default route programming
correct in multi-asic platform where frr is not running
in host namespace. Change is to set correct administrative distance.
Also make NAMESPACE* enviroment variable available for all dockers
so that it can be used when needed.

* Fix review comments
* Review comment to check to add default route
only if default route exist and delete is successful.
