#### Why I did it
Add platform_asic file to each platform folder in sonic-device-data package. The file content will be used as the ground truth of mapping from PLATFORM_STRING to switch ASIC family.
One use case of the mapping is to prevent installing a wrong image, which targets for other ASIC platforms. For example, currently we have several ONIE images naming as sonic-*.bin, it's easy to mistakenly install the wrong image. With this mapping built into image, we could fetch the ONIE platform string, and figure out which ASIC it is using, and check we are installing the correct image.
After this PR merged, each platform vendor has to add one mandatory text file `device/PLATFORM_VENDOR/PLATFORM_STRING/platform_asic`, with the content of the platform's switch ASIC family.
I will update https://github.com/Azure/SONiC/wiki/Porting-Guide after this PR is merged.
You can get a list of the ASIC platforms by `ls -b platform | cat`. Currently the options are
```
barefoot
broadcom
cavium
centec
centec-arm64
generic
innovium
marvell
marvell-arm64
marvell-armhf
mellanox
nephos
p4
vs
```
Also support
```
broadcom-dnx
```
#### How I did it
#### How to verify it
Test one image on DUT. And check the folders under `/usr/share/sonic/device`

Why I did it
To support dynamic port breakout Broadcom configurations on Arista platforms.
How I did it
Updated platform.json for platforms and added new hwsku, Broadcom config, and hwsku.json for dynamic port breakout usage.
The name of the new hwsku name used is very similar to the platform name (platform x86_64-arista_7050_qx32s hwsku Arista-7050QX-32S) as the flex hwsku is meant to be the default in the future.
How to verify it
Boot up device with the new hwsku, interfaces are up.
Change hwsku.json with new default breakout mode and reload device, breakout will have successfully been applied.
Platform library changes
- Fix the use of /proc/modules during testing, fixes#7463
- Add `libsfp-eeprom.so` build to read/write xcvr eeproms in C
- Add some more reboot-cause information
- Write down temperature hw thresholds to the sensors
- Report software thresholds through platform api
- Writ `port_name sysfs` file of optoe`
- Tests enhancements
- Fix dependency issues for chassis provisioning
Platform configuration changes
- Add `pcie.yaml` configuration for a few platforms
- Mount `libsfp-eeprom.so` inside `pmon`
- Fix `Arista-7050SX3-48C8` and `Arista-7050SX3-48YC8' platform and hwsku
- Miscellaneous fixes

As booting on DCS-7060DX4-32 would use the default sku of DCS-7060PX4-32 which is not compatible,
thus move some files around to properly separate the configurations that are device specific.

Prevent system-healthd from service from failing at boot time due to missing configuration.
Also adds basic support for healthd.
The following caveat exists with this placeholder configuration:
- No PSU monitoring (sensors/fans)
- No ASIC temperature monitoring
platform.json is needed for sonic-mgmt testing. Also in the future it will be used as part of dynamic port breakout.
Also removed the folder symlink for BlackhawkDD because it has a different platform.json than BlackhawkO.
