* Update container_checker for multi-asic devices
Update container_checker for multi-asic devices to add database containers in always_running_containers.
Previous change was made for single-asic, and that database containers were not considered as feature when writing to state_db.

Why I did it
Finding running containers through "docker ps" breaks when kubernetes deploys container, as the names are mangled.
How I did it
The data is is available from FEATURE table, which takes care of kubernetes deployment too.
How to verify it
Deploy a feature via kubernetes and don't expect error from container_check.

Why I did it
Since we introduced a new value always_disabled for the state field in FEATURE table, the expected running container list
should exclude the always_diabled containers. This bug was found by nightly test and posted at here: issue. This PR fixes#7210.
How I did it
I added a logic condition to decide whether the value of state field of a container was always_disabled or not.
How to verify it
I verified this on the device str-dx010-acs-1.

**- Why I did it**
This PR aims to monitor the running status of each container. Currently the auto-restart feature was enabled. If a critical process exited unexpected, the container will be restarted. If the container was restarted 3 times during 20 minutes, then it will not run anymore unless we cleared the flag using the command `sudo systemctl reset-failed <container_name>` manually.
**- How I did it**
We will employ Monit to monitor a script. This script will generate the expected running container list and compare it with the current running containers. If there are containers which were expected to run but were not running, then an alerting message will be written into syslog.
**- How to verify it**
I tested this feature on a lab device `str-a7050-acs-3` which has single ASIC and `str2-n3164-acs-3` which has a Multi-ASIC. First I manually stopped a container by running the command `sudo systemctl stop <container_name>`, then I checked whether there was an alerting message in the syslog.
