Change DHCP rate limit in SONiC copp configuration to 100 PPS as this is
necessary to ensure that DHCP flood does not cause LACP/BGP flaps in all
scenarios
This is an extension to the change in image_config: copp: Enable rate limiting
for bgp, lacp, dhcp, lldp, macsec and udld #14859 and sonic-mgmt change in
[tests/copp]: Update copp mgmt tests to support new rate-limits sonic-mgmt#8199
Why I did it
300 PPS is not sufficient to prevent LACP/BGP flaps in all cases. 100 PPS seems to
provide better resiliency against DHCP traffic flood to CPU.
Microsoft ADO 25776614:
Send DHCP broadcast packets to DUT and verify that they are trapped to CPU at 100 PPS.

copp-config service needs to be started after sonic.target so that it could
render the copp-config with the latest information.
It also needs to be restarted when config reload or load_minigraph is invoked.

*Removed execute permissions from the systemd copp-config.service file.
Without this we will get a warning: "Configuration file /lib/systemd/system/copp-config.service is marked executable. Please remove executable permission bits. Proceeding anyway."
- Why I did it
Currently dhcp packets are disabled by the COPP manager for non ToRRouter type switches.
Even if the feature is enabled, DHCP packets wont hook to the CPU since the COPP manager will not trap this packets.
This change is to disable dhcp_relay by default for non ToRRouter switches from init_cfg.json.
With this approach, if the user want to enable the feature for non ToRRouter switches, manual enablement is required by the 'feature' configuration.
This is to keep the current approach for MSFT production issue with dhcp relay for non ToRRouter switched and allow the user to decide if to use it or not.
- How I did it
Configure dhcp_relay 'disabled' by default on init_cfg.json for non ToRRouter switches.
Remove the exclusion of dhcp packets on copp_cfg.json
- How to verify it
Enable dhcp_relay feature on a non ToRRouter switch.
Unit-tests modified so the default values on mocked CONFIG DB in 'test_vectors.py' for dhcp_relay will be 'disabled'.
This is by the change for 'init_cfg.json.j2'.
For ToRRouter the state will change from 'disabled' to 'enabled'.
Another test case added for a 'ToR' switch type, this is to test the state is 'enabled' if the user configured it to be so.
