In preparation for the merging of Azure/sonic-platform-common#173, which properly defines class and instance members in the Platform API base classes.
It is proper object-oriented methodology to call the base class initializer, even if it is only the default initializer. This also future-proofs the potential addition of custom initializers in the base classes down the road.
BRCM SDK 6.5.21 includes firmware updates (premier cancun) for TD3 platforms. The firmware update is required on TD3 platforms, which is packaged with BCMSAI 4.3.0.10.
**- How I did it**
Updated BCM config with a new variable that specifies the firmware package path. SDK uses this path to locate firmware packages and load during cold boot.

> FieldValueMap `contains`(`in`) will also work when migrated to libswsscommon(C++ with SWIG wrapper) (#94)
- Also fix Python 3-related issues:
- Use integer (floor) division in config_samples.py (sonic-config-engine)
- Replace print statement with print function in eeprom.py plugin for x86_64-kvm_x86_64-r0 platform
- Update all platform plugins to be compatible with both Python 2 and Python 3
- Remove shebangs from plugins files which are not intended to be executable
- Replace tabs with spaces in Python plugin files and fix alignment, because Python 3 is more strict
- Remove trailing whitespace from plugins files
However in SAI 3.7 default behaviout got changes to 128 Group and 128
Memeber each.
This change is to make sure we are using same ECMP Group/Memeber Per
Group for 3.7 also so that behaviour is consistent.
