#### 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`
Depends on Azure/sonic-utilities#1626
Depends on Azure/sonic-swss#1754
QOS tables in config db used ABNF format i.e "[TABLE_NAME|name] to refer fieldvalue to other qos tables.
Example:
Config DB:
"Ethernet92|3": {
"scheduler": "[SCHEDULER|scheduler.1]",
"wred_profile": "[WRED_PROFILE|AZURE_LOSSLESS]"
},
"Ethernet0|0": {
"profile": "[BUFFER_PROFILE|ingress_lossy_profile]"
},
"Ethernet0": {
"dscp_to_tc_map": "[DSCP_TO_TC_MAP|AZURE]",
"pfc_enable": "3,4",
"pfc_to_queue_map": "[MAP_PFC_PRIORITY_TO_QUEUE|AZURE]",
"tc_to_pg_map": "[TC_TO_PRIORITY_GROUP_MAP|AZURE]",
"tc_to_queue_map": "[TC_TO_QUEUE_MAP|AZURE]"
},
This format is not consistent with other DB schema followed in sonic.
And also this reference in DB is not required, This is taken care by YANG "leafref".
Removed this format from all platform files to consistent with other sonic db schema.
Example:
"Ethernet92|3": {
"scheduler": "scheduler.1",
"wred_profile": "AZURE_LOSSLESS"
},

What I did:
add platform components
How I did it:
In platform_components.json add chassis and empty component
How to verify it:
Run show platform firmware updates
#### Why I did it
To get rid of obsolete code
#### How I did it
Removed plugins folder from device/barefoot

Dynamic Port Breakout fall in case "autoneg" field exist in config_db.
- How I did it
Added "autoneg" field in sonic-port yang model.
- How to verify it
Add "autoneg" field into config_db like this:
"Ethernet8": {
"index": "2",
"lanes": "8,9,10,11",
"fec": "rs",
"pfc_asym": "off",
"mtu": "9100",
"alias": "Ethernet8",
"admin_status": "up",
"autoneg": "on",
"speed": "100000",
},
Y* profile is the name pattern for p4 programs that developed for the current platform. The difference between them is features enabled and resource reservation.
For this platform, it is expected to work on any Y profile. but after the latest changes, the first Y profile is always used.
