- Why I did it
Optimize syslog rate limit feature for fast and warm boot
- How I did it
Optimize redis start time
Don't render rsyslog.conf in container startup script
Disable containercfgd by default. There is a new CLI to enable it (in another PR)

Why I did it
Support to build armhf/arm64 platforms on arm based system without qemu simulator.
When building the armhf/arm64 on arm based system, it is not necessary to use qemu simulator.
How I did it
Build armhf on armhf system, or build arm64 on arm64 system, by default, qemu simulator will not be used.
When building armhf on arm64, and you have enabled armhf docker, then it will build images without simulator automatically. It is based how the docker service is run.
Docker base image change:
For amd64, change from debian:to amd64/debian:
For arm64, change from multiarch/debian-debootstrap:arm64- to arm64v8/debian:
For armhf, change from multiarch/debian-debootstrap:armhf- to arm32v7/debian:
See https://github.com/docker-library/official-images#architectures-other-than-amd64
The mapping relations:
arm32v6 --- armel
arm32v7 --- armhf
arm64v8 --- arm64
Docker image armhf deprecated info: https://hub.docker.com/r/armhf/debian, using arm32v7 instead.
- Support compile sonic arm image on arm server. If arm image compiling is executed on arm server instead of using qemu mode on x86 server, compile time can be saved significantly.
- Add kernel argument systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy=0 for upgrade systemd to version 247, according to #7228
- rename multiarch docker to sonic-slave-${distro}-march-${arch}

**- Why I did it**
As part of migrating SONiC codebase from Python 2 to Python 3
**- How I did it**
- No longer install Python 2 in docker-base-buster or docker-config-engine-buster.
- Install Python 2 and pip2 in the following containers until we can completely eliminate it there:
- docker-platform-monitor
- docker-sonic-mgmt-framework
- docker-sonic-vs
- Pin pip2 version <21 where it is still temporarily needed, as pip version 21 will drop support for Python 2
- Also preform some other cleanup, ensuring that pip3, setuptools and wheel packages are installed in docker-base-buster, and then removing any attempts to re-install them in derived containers
**- Why I did it**
We were building a custom version of Supervisor because I had added patches to prevent hangs and crashes if the system clock ever rolled backward. Those changes were merged into the upstream Supervisor repo as of version 3.4.0 (http://supervisord.org/changes.html#id9), therefore, we should be able to simply install the vanilla package via pip. This will also allow us to easily move to Python 3, as Python 3 support was added in version 4.0.0.
**- How I did it**
- Remove Makefiles and patches for building supervisor package from source
- Install Python 3 supervisor package version 4.2.1 in Buster base container
- Also install Python 3 version of supervisord-dependent-startup in Buster base container
- Debian package installed binary in `/usr/bin/`, but pip package installs in `/usr/local/bin/`, so rather than update all absolute paths, I changed all references to simply call `supervisord` and let the system PATH find the executable to prevent future need for changes just in case we ever need to switch back to build a Debian package, then we won't need to modify these again.
- Install Python 2 supervisor package >= 3.4.0 in Stretch and Jessie base containers
This is an addendum to #3958, which also instructs apt to ignore the "Valid Until" date in Release files inside the slave containers, making a complete solution, much like the previously abandoned PR #2609. This patch also unifies file names and contents.
When the Debian team archives a repo, it stops updating the "Valid Until" date, thus apt-get will not apply updates for that repo unless we explicitly tell it to ignore the "Valid Until" date. Also, this has become an issue with active (i.e., non-archived) repos twice in the past year because the Debian folks seem to occasionally let the expiration lapse before updating the date. This will cause SONiC builds to fail with a message like E: Release file for http://debian-archive.trafficmanager.net/debian-security/dists/jessie/updates/InRelease is expired (invalid since 3d 3h 11min 20s). Updates for this repository will not be applied. until the dates have been updated and propagated to all mirrors. With this patch, SONiC should no longer be affected by lapsed "Valid Until" dates, whether they be accidental or purposeful.

* [docker-base] Instruct apt-get to NOT install 'recommended' or 'suggested' packages
* Modify docker-fpm-quagga, docker-snmp-sv2 and docker-sonic-vs Dockerfile templates in order to properly install .deb dependencies
* REDIS_SERVER depends on REDIS_TOOLS; ensure REDIS_TOOLS is always installed before REDIS_SERVER
- Consolidate config.sh and start.sh scripts into one script (start.sh)
- Solve issue #435 - All dockers now run supervisord as their ENTRYPOINT
- All stdout/stderr output from processes managed by supervisord is now sent to syslog instead of their own files
- Supervisord log messages are now also sent to syslog
- Removed unused smartmontools package from docker-platform-monitor
