The `get_serial_number()` method in the ChassisBase and ModuleBase classes was redundant, as the `get_serial()` method is inherited from the DeviceBase class. This method was removed from the base classes in sonic-platform-common and the submodule was updated in https://github.com/Azure/sonic-buildimage/pull/5625.
This PR aligns the existing vendor platform API implementations to remove the `get_serial_number()` methods and ensure the `get_serial()` methods are implemented, if they weren't previously.
Note that this PR does not modify the Dell platform API implementations, as this will be handled as part of https://github.com/Azure/sonic-buildimage/pull/5609
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 in https://github.com/Azure/sonic-buildimage/pull/5003
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 the next step toward resolving https://github.com/Azure/sonic-buildimage/issues/4999
Also reverted my previous change in which device_info.get_platform() would first try obtaining the platform ID string from Config DB and fall back to gathering it from machine.conf upon failure because this function is called by sonic-cfggen before the data is in the DB, in which case, the db_connect() call will hang indefinitely, which was not the behavior I expected. As of now, the function will always reference machine.conf.
Align SFP key names with new standard defined in https://github.com/Azure/sonic-platform-common/pull/97
- hardwarerev -> hardware_rev
- serialnum -> serial
- manufacturename -> manufacturer
- modelname -> model
- Connector -> connector
1. undefine led_classdev_register as it is defined in leds.h
2. header file location change
a. linux/i2c/pmbus.h -> linux/pmbus.h
b. linux/i2c-mux-gpio.h -> linux/platform_data/i2c-mux-gpio.h
c. linux/i2c/pca954x.h -> linux/platform_data/pca954x.h
