Define slave_base_tag_ref variable in Makefile.work containing
specific base image tag to use, rather than always defaulting
to :latest.
Add an ARG command before FROM statement in Dockerfile.user
for sonic-slave and sonic-slave-stretch. ARG variable defaults
to latest if slave_base_tag_ref not specified in Makefile.work.
The presumption to always refer to the :latest tagged Docker base
image when creating the user image causes problems in a shared
build server environment, where the most recently created base
image (i.e. the current :latest tag) may not be compatible with
the current build. For example, different users working in
different branches may all be sharing the same build server.

- What I did
Added a DOCKER_AVOID_BASE_TAG_LATEST build option to rules/config that forces the Docker user image creation to refer to its base image by a specific tag rather than rely on the :latest tag. This is needed in a shared build server environment where builds from different developers and/or different SONiC branches all converge on the same Docker daemon instance running on the build server. The :latest tag is always assigned to the most recent base image built, which might not correspond to the base image needed for a particular build, thus causing various build errors that mostly manifest as missing Debian packages or package version mismatches.
NOTE TO REVIEWERS: This PR relies on Docker support of "ARG before FROM," which was first introduced in Docker version 17.05.1-ce. Although there is no mention of a minimum required Docker version for the build server in the SONiC Building Guide pages, please consider whether it is reasonable to assume that Docker 17.05.1-ce or later must be used for SONiC build hosts before approving this PR.
- How I did it
Added an ARG before the FROM statement at the top of the sonic-slave/Dockerfile.user and sonic-slave-stretch/Dockerfile.user files. The ARG variable defaults to latest, but can be overridden in Makefile.work to reference the SLAVE_BASE_TAG so that it refers to the specific, matching base image for the build. This override is activated by un-commenting the DOCKER_AVOID_BASE_TAG_LATEST = y line in rules/config.
Some kernels are built with overlayfs as a builtin and not a module.
For these the check via lsmod currently fails.
This improvement now checks the kernel configuration for the
CONFIG_OVERLAY_FS entry. Depending on the OS and kernel version the
build configuration can be in multiple places.
* [vm build] force Linux to drop cache before calling kvm
KVM need to allocate 2G memory for this build. The system memory might
be occupied by cache at the moment and doesn't have 2G chunk to give
out. Forcing Kernel to drop cache to boost the chance of getting 2G
memory.

* [build]: put stretch debian packages under target/debs/stretch/
* in stretch build phase, all debian packages built in that stage are placed under target/debs/stretch directory.
* for python-based debian packages, since they are really the same for jessie and stretch, they are placed under target/python-debs directory.

This can be used when sonic-buildimage repo is a git submodule of other
repo.
e.g) if sonic-buildimage is a git submodule of "parent" repo and
sonic-buildimage is just under the top directory of "parent" repo, we
can build sonic-buildimage like below
$ cd parent/sonic-buildimage
$ DOCKER_BUILDER_MOUNT=`realpath ../`:`realpath ../` \
DOCKER_BUILDER_WORKDIR=`pwd` make all
