- Why I did it
Support zero buffer profiles
1. Add buffer profiles and pool definition for zero buffer profiles
2. Support applying zero profiles on INACTIVE PORTS
3. Enable dynamic buffer manager to load zero pools and profiles from a JSON file
- How I did it
Add buffer profiles and pool definition for zero buffer profiles
If the buffer model is static:
* Apply normal buffer profiles to admin-up ports
* Apply zero buffer profiles to admin-down ports
If the buffer model is dynamic:
* Apply normal buffer profiles to all ports
* buffer manager will take care when a port is shut down
Update buffers_config.j2 to support INACTIVE PORTS by extending the existing macros to generate the various buffer objects, including PGs, queues, ingress/egress profile lists
Originally, all the macros to generate the above buffer objects took active ports only as an argument.
Now that buffer items need to be generated on inactive ports as well, an extra argument representing the inactive ports need to be added.
To be backward compatible, a new series of macros are introduced to take both active and inactive ports as arguments
The original version (with active ports only) will be checked first. If it is not defined, then the extended version will be called.
Only vendors who support zero profiles need to change their buffer templates
Enable buffer manager to load zero pools and profiles from a JSON file:
The JSON file is provided on a per-platform basis
It is copied from platform/<vendor> folder to /usr/share/sonic/temlates folder in compiling time and rendered when the swss container is being created.
To make code clean and reduce redundant code, extract common macros from buffer_defaults_t{0,1}.j2 of all SKUs to two common files:
One in Mellanox-SN2700-D48C8 for single ingress pool mode
The other in ACS-MSN2700 for double ingress pool mode
Those files of all other SKUs will be symbol link to the above files
Update sonic-cfggen test accordingly:
* Adjust example output file of JSON template for unit test
* Add unit test in for Mellanox's new buffer templates.
- How to verify it
Regression test.
Unit test in sonic-cfggen
Run regression test and manually test.

- 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.
Fix to the correct value for all SPC1 devices.
For 10G added 10GB_CX4_XAUI, 10GB_KX4, 10GB_KR, 10GB_SR and 10GB_ER_LR
For 50G added 50GB_SR2
This bitmask represents all the options available for interface type and some were missing.
Note: it was working just fine if you were setting the value from SONiC CLI but not from the default SAI Profile.

#### Why I did it
Change buffer config for new SKU Mellanox-SN2700-D40C8S8
#### How I did it
Reuse the buffer config of SKU Mellanox-SN2700-D48C8
#### How to verify it
Run sonic-mgmt qos test and all passed
#### Why I did it
Add new SKU for SN2700 Mellanox system that supports the following port configuration:
8 X 100G
40 X 50G
8 X 10G
#### How I did it
Add new Folder - "Mellanox-SN2700-D40C8S8" under /sonic-buildimage/device/mellanox/x86_64-mlnx_msn2700-r0/
that contains the relevant files supporting this SKU
the buffers are based on SKU: D48C8 . Later on it will be configured specific for this SKU
#### How to verify it
Bring up the image, run "show interface status" and make sure that all ports are up and reflect the following requirement:
Port 1/3 will be used as 4x10G
Port 2/4 - Not exist (blocked since 1 and 3 split to 4)
Port 7/8/9/10/23/24/25/26 will used as 100G
All other ports will be used as 2x50G
#### Which release branch to backport (provide reason below if selected)
- [ ] 201811
- [ ] 201911
- [ ] 202006
- [X] 202012
#### Description for the changelog
Support new SKU under the name of SN2700-D40C8S8
