Dependency: [PR (#12065)](https://github.com/sonic-net/sonic-buildimage/pull/12065) needs to merge first.
#### Why I did it
1. `eval()` - not secure against maliciously constructed input, can be dangerous if used to evaluate dynamic content. This may be a code injection vulnerability.
2. `subprocess()` - when using with `shell=True` is dangerous. Using subprocess function without a static string can lead to command injection.
3. `os` - not secure against maliciously constructed input and dangerous if used to evaluate dynamic content.
4. `is` operator - string comparison should not be used with reference equality.
5. `globals()` - extremely dangerous because it may allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system
#### How I did it
1. `eval()` - use `literal_eval()`
2. `subprocess()` - use `shell=False` instead. use an array string. Ref: [https://semgrep.dev/docs/cheat-sheets/python-command-injection/#mitigation](https://semgrep.dev/docs/cheat-sheets/python-command-injection/#mitigation)
3. `os` - use with `subprocess`
4. `is` - replace by `==` operator for value equality
5. `globals()` - avoid the use of globals()

- 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
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.
