- Why I did it
This new breakout mode is required when a QSFP cable is used on the QSFP-DD supported 4700 port. since QSFP only uses the first 4 lanes, this mode is required to restrict the child ports to only use the first four lanes
- How I did it
Updated the platfrom.json file with the extended data
- How to verify it
Tested on one port:
root@msn-4700:/home/admin# show int status
Interface Lanes Speed MTU FEC Alias Vlan Oper Admin Type Asym PFC
----------- ------------------------------- ------- ----- ----- ------- ------ ------ ------- ----------------------------------------------- ----------
Ethernet0 0 25G 9100 N/A etp1a routed up up QSFP28 or later N/A
Ethernet1 1 25G 9100 N/A etp1b routed down up N/A N/A
Ethernet2 2 25G 9100 N/A etp1c routed down up N/A N/A
Ethernet3 3 25G 9100 N/A etp1d routed down up N/A N/A

- Why I did it
MSN4700 platform has 8 lanes per port and thus can support 2x40G with each lane running at 10G
- How I did it
Added 40G to 2x200G breakout mode in platform.json
- How to verify it
Run config int break Ethernet0 2x40G[200G,100G,50G,25G,10G,1G]
And verify the command runs successfully and the port speed was set to 40G with a 2x breakout.
#### Why I did it
Current platform.json lacks some peripheral device related facts, like chassis/fan/pasu/drawer/thermal/components names, numbers, etc.
#### How I did it
Add platform device facts to the platform.json file

To fix [DPB| wrong aliases for interfaces](https://github.com/Azure/sonic-buildimage/issues/6024) issue, implimented flexible alias support [design doc](https://github.com/Azure/SONiC/pull/749)
> [[dpb|config] Fix the validation logic of breakout mode](https://github.com/Azure/sonic-utilities/pull/1440) depends on this
#### How I did it
1. Removed `"alias_at_lanes"` from port-configuration file(i.e. platfrom.json)
2. Added dictionary to "breakout_modes" values. This defines the breakout modes available on the platform for this parent port, and it maps to the alias list. The alias list presents the alias names for individual ports in order under this breakout mode.

}
}
}
```
#### How to verify it
`config interface breakout`
