implements a new feature: "BGP Allow list."
This feature allows us to control which IP prefixes are going to be advertised via ebgp from the routes received from EBGP neighbors.
* Add bgpmon under sonic-bgpcfgd to be started as a new daemon under BGP docker
* Added bgpmon to be monitored by Monit so that if it crashed, it gets alerted
* use console_scripts entry point to package bgpmon
When stopping the swss, pmon or bgp containers, log messages like the following can be seen:
```
Aug 23 22:50:43.789760 sonic-dut INFO swss#supervisord 2020-08-23 22:50:10,061 ERRO pool dependent-startup event buffer overflowed, discarding event 34
Aug 23 22:50:43.789760 sonic-dut INFO swss#supervisord 2020-08-23 22:50:10,063 ERRO pool dependent-startup event buffer overflowed, discarding event 35
Aug 23 22:50:43.789760 sonic-dut INFO swss#supervisord 2020-08-23 22:50:10,064 ERRO pool dependent-startup event buffer overflowed, discarding event 36
Aug 23 22:50:43.789760 sonic-dut INFO swss#supervisord 2020-08-23 22:50:10,066 ERRO pool dependent-startup event buffer overflowed, discarding event 37
```
This is due to the number of programs in the container managed by supervisor, all generating events at the same time. The default event queue buffer size in supervisor is 10. This patch increases that value in all containers in order to eliminate these errors. As more programs are added to the containers, we may need to further adjust these values. I increased all buffer sizes to 25 except for containers with more programs or templated supervisor.conf files which allow for a variable number of programs. In these cases I increased the buffer size to 50. One final exception is the swss container, where the buffer fills up to ~50, so I increased this buffer to 100.

Calls to sonic-cfggen is CPU expensive. This PR reduces calls to
sonic-cfggen to two calls during startup when starting frr service.

Explanation:
In the log from the issue I found:
```
I see following in the log
Jul 22 21:13:06.574831 vlab-01 WARNING bgp#bgpd[49]: [EC 33554499] sendmsg_nexthop: zclient_send_message() failed
```
Analyzing source code I found that the error message could be issues only when `zclient_send_rnh()` return less than 0.
```
ret = zclient_send_rnh(zclient, command, p, exact_match,
bnc->bgp->vrf_id);
/* TBD: handle the failure */
if (ret < 0)
flog_warn(EC_BGP_ZEBRA_SEND,
"sendmsg_nexthop: zclient_send_message() failed");
```
I checked [zclient_send_rnh()](88351c8f6d/lib/zclient.c (L654)) and found that this function will return the exit code which the function gets from [zclient_send_message()](88351c8f6d/lib/zclient.c (L266)) But the latter function could return not 0 in two cases:
1. bgpd didn’t connect to the zclient socket yet [code](88351c8f6d/lib/zclient.c (L269))
2. The socket was closed. But in this case we would receive the error message in the log. (And I can find the message in the log when we reboot sonic) [code](88351c8f6d/lib/zclient.c (L277))
Also I see from the logs that client connection was set later we had the issue in bgpd.
Bgpd.log
```
Jul 22 21:13:06.574831 vlab-01 WARNING bgp#bgpd[49]: [EC 33554499] sendmsg_nexthop: zclient_send_message() failed
```
Vs
Zebra.log
```
Jul 22 21:13:12.713249 vlab-01 NOTICE bgp#zebra[48]: client 25 says hello and bids fair to announce only static routes vrf=0
Jul 22 21:13:12.820352 vlab-01 NOTICE bgp#zebra[48]: client 30 says hello and bids fair to announce only bgp routes vrf=0
Jul 22 21:13:12.820352 vlab-01 NOTICE bgp#zebra[48]: client 33 says hello and bids fair to announce only vnc routes vrf=0
```
So in our case we should start zebra first. Wait until it is started and then start bgpd and other daemons.
**- How I did it**
I changed a graph to start daemons in the following order:
1. First start zebra
2. Then starts staticd and bgpd
3. Then starts vtysh -b and bgpeoi after bgpd is started.

* Loopback IP changes for multi ASIC devices
multi ASIC will have 2 Loopback Interfaces
- Loopback0 has globally unique IP address, which is advertised by the multi ASIC device to its peers.
This way all the external devices will see this device as a single device.
- Loopback4096 is assigned an IP address which has a scope is within the device. Each ASIC has a different ip address for Loopback4096. This ip address will be used as Router-Id by the bgp instance on multi ASIC devices.
This PR implements this change for multi ASIC devices

* Adding new BGP peer groups PEER_V4_INT and PEER_V6_INT. The internal BGP sessions
will be added to this peer group while the external BGP sessions will be added
to the exising PEER_V4 and PEER_V6 peer group.
* Check for "ASIC" keyword in the hostname to identify the internal neighbors.
- change the references to 'type' field to 'sub_role'
- change the references to 'InternalFrontend' and 'InternalBackend' to 'FrontEnd' and 'BackEnd' respectively
- add a statement to reflect route-reflector for backend asics
- add a change to set "next-hop-self force" configuration for internal BGP session in multi asic platform.

The one big bgp configuration template was splitted into chunks.
Currently we have three types of bgp neighbor peers:
general bgp peers. They are represented by CONFIG_DB::BGP_NEIGHBOR table entries
dynamic bgp peers. They are represented by CONFIG_DB::BGP_PEER_RANGE table entries
monitors bgp peers. They are represented by CONFIG_DB::BGP_MONITORS table entries
This PR introduces three templates for each peer type:
bgp policies: represent policieas that will be applied to the bgp peer-group (ip prefix-lists, route-maps, etc)
bgp peer-group: represent bgp peer group which has common configuration for the bgp peer type and uses bgp routing policy from the previous item
bgp peer-group instance: represent bgp configuration, which will be used to instatiate a bgp peer-group for the bgp peer-type. Usually this one is simple, consist of the referral to the bgp peer-group, bgp peer description and bgp peer ip address.
This PR redefined constant.yml file. Now this file has a setting for to use or don't use bgp_neighbor metadata. This file has more parameters for now, which are not used. They will be used in the next iteration of bgpcfgd.
Currently all tests have been disabled. I'm going to create next PR with the tests right after this PR is merged.
I'm going to introduce better bgpcfgd in a short time. It will include support of dynamic changes for the templates.
