Why I did it
Fixes#8980 partly.
The corresponding changes in sonic-sairedis is here :
Azure/sonic-sairedis#975
How I did it
Include changes from both repos and build an image for verification.
How to verify it
Trigger fast-reboot with the changes, see the attribute SAI_SWITCH_ATTR_UNINIT_DATA_PLANE_ON_REMOVAL being set at the SAI level.

Changes to allow starting per asic services like swss and syncd only if the platform vendor codedetects the asic is detected and notified. The systemd services ordering we want is database->database@->pmon->swss@->syncd@->teamd@->lldp@
There is also a requirement that management, telemetry, snmp dockers can start even if all asic services are not up.
Why I did it
For VOQ chassis, the fabric cards will have 1-N asics. Also, there could be multiple removable fabric cards. On the supervisor, swss and syncd containers need to be started only if the fabric-card is in Online state and respective asics are detected by the kernel. Using systemd, the dependent services can be in inactive state.
How I did it
Introduce a mechanism where all ASIC dependent service wait on its state to be published via PMON to REDIS. Once the subscription is received, the service proceeds to create respective dockers.
For fixed platforms, systemd is unchanged i.e. the service bring up and docker creation happens in the start()/ExecStartPre routine of the .sh scripts.
For VOQ chassis platform on supervisor, the service bringup skips docker creation in the start() routine, but does it in the wait()/ExecStart routine of the .sh scrips.
Management dockers are decoupled from ASIC docker creation.
* buildimage: Add gearbox phy device files and a new physyncd docker to support VS gearbox phy feature
* scripts and configuration needed to support a second syncd docker (physyncd)
* physyncd supports gearbox device and phy SAI APIs and runs multiple instances of syncd, one per phy in the device
* support for VS target (sonic-sairedis vslib has been extended to support a virtual BCM81724 gearbox PHY).

**- Why I did it**
This work is part of the gearbox phy joint effort between Microsoft and Broadcom, and is based
on multi-switch support in sonic-sairedis.
**- How I did it**
Overall feature was implemented across several projects. The collective pull requests (some in late stages of review at this point):
https://github.com/Azure/sonic-utilities/pull/931 - CLI (merged)
https://github.com/Azure/sonic-swss-common/pull/347 - Minor changes (merged)
https://github.com/Azure/sonic-swss/pull/1321 - gearsyncd, config parsers, changes to orchargent to create gearbox phy on supported systems
https://github.com/Azure/sonic-sairedis/pull/624 - physyncd, virtual BCM81724 gearbox phy added to vslib
**- How to verify it**
In a vslib build:
root@sonic:/home/admin# show gearbox interfaces status
PHY Id Interface MAC Lanes MAC Lane Speed PHY Lanes PHY Lane Speed Line Lanes Line Lane Speed Oper Admin

In addition, docker ps | grep phy should show a physyncd docker running.
