As part of consolidating all common Python-based functionality into the new sonic-py-common package, this pull request:
1. Redirects all Python applications/scripts in sonic-buildimage repo which previously imported sonic_device_util or sonic_daemon_base to instead import sonic-py-common, which was added to the 201911 branch in https://github.com/Azure/sonic-buildimage/pull/5063
2. Replaces all calls to `sonic_device_util.get_platform_info()` to instead call `sonic_py_common.get_platform()` and removes any calls to `sonic_device_util.get_machine_info()` which are no longer necessary (i.e., those which were only used to pass the results to `sonic_device_util.get_platform_info()`.
3. Removes unused imports to the now-deprecated sonic-daemon-base package and sonic_device_util.py module
This is a step toward resolving https://github.com/Azure/sonic-buildimage/issues/4999
* [process-reboot-cause]Address the issue: Incorrect reboot cause returned when warm reboot follows a hardware caused reboot
1. check whether /proc/cmdline indicates warm/fast reboot.
if yes the software reboot cause file will be treated as the reboot cause.
finish
2. check whether platform api returns a reboot cause.
if yes it is treated as the reboot cause.
finish.
3. check whether /hosts/reboot-cause contains a cause.
if yes it is treated as the cause otherwise return unknown.
* [process-reboot-cause]Fix review comments
* [process-reboot-cause]address comments
1. use "with" statement
2. update fast/warm reboot BOOT_ARG
* [process-reboot-cause]address comments
* refactor the code flow
* Remove escape
* Remove extra ':'
In case of going from previous iteration of SONiC, and the last reboot
was hardware, REBOOT_CAUSE_FILE may not be present and the service may
throw an error.
