* [sflow + dropmon] added INCLUDE_SFLOW_DROPMON flag, added patches for hsflowd
*Added a capability of monitoring dropped packets for the sFlow daemon in order to improve network - monitoring, diagnostic, and troubleshooting. The drop monitor service allows the sFlow daemon to export another type of sample - dropped packets as Discard samples alongside Counter samples and Packet Flow samples.

Fix#119
when parallel build is enable, multiple dpkg-buildpackage
instances are running at the same time. /var/lib/dpkg is shared
by all instances and the /var/lib/dpkg/updates could be corrupted
and cause the build failure.
the fix is to use overlay fs to mount separate /var/lib/dpkg
for each dpkg-buildpackage instance so that they are not affecting
each other.

- Add .gitignore files in each subdirectory of src/, so as to reduce the size of the .gitignore file in the project root, and also make it easier to maintain (i.e., if a directory in src/ is removed, there will not be outdated entries in the root .gitignore file.
- Also add missing .gitignore entries and remove outdated entries and duplicates.
As per SONiC CLI requirements, we wanted the collector port to default to 6343 if not explicitly configured. In the Click based CLI, if the collector port is omitted, the port will be set to 6343 by default (https://github.com/Azure/sonic-utilities/blob/master/config/main.py#L2543).
However, if sonic-mgmt-framework based CLI is used, hsflowd was using port 0 as default. host-sflow v2.0.26-4 addresses this issue (i.e. use 6343 in case “collector_port” is not set).
Upgrade hsflowd to v2.0.26-4 to pick up https://github.com/sflow/host-sflow/releases/tag/v2.0.26-4.
Introduce a new "sflow" container (if ENABLE_SFLOW is set). The new docker will include:
hsflowd : host-sflow based daemon is the sFlow agent
psample : Built from libpsample repository. Useful in debugging sampled packets/groups.
sflowtool : Locally dump sflow samples (e.g. with a in-unit collector)
In case of SONiC-VS, enable psample & act_sample kernel modules.
VS' syncd needs iproute2=4.20.0-2~bpo9+1 & libcap2-bin=1:2.25-1 to support tc-sample
tc-syncd is provided as a convenience tool for debugging (e.g. tc-syncd filter show ...)
