#### 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`
- Why I did it
The MSN4410 platform was missing 2x100G and 4x50G supported breakout modes in platform.json
- How I did it
Added the aforementioned breakout modes to platform.json
- How to verify it
Run show interface breakout on a MSN4410 and verify that 2x100G and 4x50G are listed in the supported breakout modes for ports 1-24.
#### Why I did it
New SN410 A1 system has a different sensor layout with A0 system, needs a new sensor conf file to support it.
#### How I did it
Since the SN4410 A1 system use exactly the same sensor layout as the SN4700 A1 system, so add a symbol link linking to the SN4700 A1 sensor conf file to reuse.
#### How to verify it
Run sensor test against the SN4410 A1 system;
Run platform related regression test against the SN4410 A1 system
- Why I did it
To create SDK dump on Mellanox devices when SDK event has occurred.
- How I did it
Set the SKUs keys needed to initialize the feature in SAI.
- How to verify it
Simulate SDK event and check that dump is created in the expected path.
- Why I did it
The default breakout mode according to hwsku.json for the MSN4410 is 1x400G and this is not a supported breakout mode according to its platform.json
This causes a conflict on boot of this platform and no containers on the switch will init successfully.
- How I did it
Referenced the platform specification files and updated platform.json
- How to verify it
Install master version of SONiC on MSN4410
Boot switch and verify swss is successfully running using docker ps
#### Why I did it
Current platform.json lacks some peripheral device related facts, like chassis/fan/pasu/drawer/thermal/components names, numbers, etc.
#### How I did it
Add platform device facts to the platform.json file

- Why I did it
Add missed files for dynamic buffer calculation for ACS-MSN3420 and ACS-MSN4410
- How I did it
asic_table.j2: Add mapping from platform to ASIC
Add buffer_dynamic.json.j2 for ACS-MSN4410.
- How to verify it
Check whether the dynamic buffer calculation daemon starts successfully.

The file device/mellanox/x86_64-mlnx_msn4410-r0/plugins/sfputil.py is not a software link for device/mellanox/x86_64-mlnx_msn2700-r0/plugins/sfputil.py. And it is still using python2 syntex which causes some SFP CLI error. The PR is to change it to a softlink and add 4410 support in device/mellanox/x86_64-mlnx_msn2700-r0/plugins/sfputil.py.
To fix [DPB| wrong aliases for interfaces](https://github.com/Azure/sonic-buildimage/issues/6024) issue, implimented flexible alias support [design doc](https://github.com/Azure/SONiC/pull/749)
> [[dpb|config] Fix the validation logic of breakout mode](https://github.com/Azure/sonic-utilities/pull/1440) depends on this
#### How I did it
1. Removed `"alias_at_lanes"` from port-configuration file(i.e. platfrom.json)
2. Added dictionary to "breakout_modes" values. This defines the breakout modes available on the platform for this parent port, and it maps to the alias list. The alias list presents the alias names for individual ports in order under this breakout mode.
```
{
"interfaces": {
"Ethernet0": {
"index": "1,1,1,1",
"lanes": "0,1,2,3",
"breakout_modes": {
"1x100G[40G]": ["Eth1"],
"2x50G": ["Eth1/1", "Eth1/2"],
"4x25G[10G]": ["Eth1/1", "Eth1/2", "Eth1/3", "Eth1/4"],
"2x25G(2)+1x50G(2)": ["Eth1/1", "Eth1/2", "Eth1/3"],
"1x50G(2)+2x25G(2)": ["Eth1/1", "Eth1/2", "Eth1/3"]
}
}
}
```
#### How to verify it
`config interface breakout`

**- Why I did it**
PR https://github.com/Azure/sonic-platform-common/pull/102 modified the name of the SFF-8436 (QSFP) method to align the method name between all drivers, renaming it from `parse_qsfp_dom_capability` to `parse_dom_capability`. Once the submodule was updated, the callers using the old nomenclature broke. This PR updates all callers to use the new naming convention.
**- How I did it**
Update the name of the function globally for all calls into the SFF-8436 driver.
Note that the QSFP-DD driver still uses the old nomenclature and should be modified similarly. I will open a PR to handle this separately.
- Why I did it
platform.json and hwsku.json files are required for a feature called Dynamic Port Breakout
- How I did it
Created capability files according to platform specification SN4410
- How to verify it
Full qualification requires bugs fixes reported under sonic-buildimage
