#### Why I did it
Add platform_asic file to each platform folder in sonic-device-data package. The file content will be used as the ground truth of mapping from PLATFORM_STRING to switch ASIC family.
One use case of the mapping is to prevent installing a wrong image, which targets for other ASIC platforms. For example, currently we have several ONIE images naming as sonic-*.bin, it's easy to mistakenly install the wrong image. With this mapping built into image, we could fetch the ONIE platform string, and figure out which ASIC it is using, and check we are installing the correct image.
After this PR merged, each platform vendor has to add one mandatory text file `device/PLATFORM_VENDOR/PLATFORM_STRING/platform_asic`, with the content of the platform's switch ASIC family.
I will update https://github.com/Azure/SONiC/wiki/Porting-Guide after this PR is merged.
You can get a list of the ASIC platforms by `ls -b platform | cat`. Currently the options are
```
barefoot
broadcom
cavium
centec
centec-arm64
generic
innovium
marvell
marvell-arm64
marvell-armhf
mellanox
nephos
p4
vs
```
Also support
```
broadcom-dnx
```
#### How I did it
#### How to verify it
Test one image on DUT. And check the folders under `/usr/share/sonic/device`

- 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
Modify get_psu_presence(). Move read() and close() to "try: ... except IOError:" To avoid when read
port present sysfs fail. This exception will let sfputil.py to exit. So "sfputil show eeprom" can't show other port status.
* [updategraph] add support to use preset config instead of default minigraph
* Fix variable case
* Remove default minigraph case
* Remove default minigraphs and add default_sku files
[swss]: Generate config files for Everflow and IPinIP from minigraph
- Add Everflow DST IP to minigraph file
- Extend minigraph.py to support Everflow
- Add templates file for Everflow and IPinIP configuration
- Add config.sh for swss docker to generate config files
( All device-specific files now reside under /device directory in a <vendor-name>/<platform-string>/<hardware-SKU> directory structure in repo.
* Device-specific files are now packaged into a Debian package (sonic-device-data) and are now installed to /usr/share/sonic/device/<platform-string>/<hardware-SKU>/ directory on switch.
