Changes for supporting vstest for VOQ system ports. The changes include:
(1)Use of chassis_db.json is avoided since the SYSTEM_PORT is made
available in virtual chassis linecard's default_config.json which will
be loaded during bootup
(2)Core port index map file is introduced and is copied from virtual chassis
directory to hwsku direcory by start.sh
(3)vs sai profile is modified to include core port index map file name

bring up chassisdb service on sonic switch according to the design in
Distributed Forwarding in VoQ Arch HLD
Signed-off-by: Honggang Xu <hxu@arista.com>
**- Why I did it**
To bring up new ChassisDB service in sonic as designed in ['Distributed forwarding in a VOQ architecture HLD' ](90c1289eaf/doc/chassis/architecture.md).
**- How I did it**
Implement the section 2.3.1 Global DB Organization of the VOQ architecture HLD.
**- How to verify it**
ChassisDB service won't start without chassisdb.conf file on the existing platforms.
ChassisDB service is accessible with global.conf file in the distributed arichitecture.

* buildimage: Add gearbox phy device files and a new physyncd docker to support VS gearbox phy feature
* scripts and configuration needed to support a second syncd docker (physyncd)
* physyncd supports gearbox device and phy SAI APIs and runs multiple instances of syncd, one per phy in the device
* support for VS target (sonic-sairedis vslib has been extended to support a virtual BCM81724 gearbox PHY).
HLD is located at b817a12fd8/doc/gearbox/gearbox_mgr_design.md
**- Why I did it**
This work is part of the gearbox phy joint effort between Microsoft and Broadcom, and is based
on multi-switch support in sonic-sairedis.
**- How I did it**
Overall feature was implemented across several projects. The collective pull requests (some in late stages of review at this point):
https://github.com/Azure/sonic-utilities/pull/931 - CLI (merged)
https://github.com/Azure/sonic-swss-common/pull/347 - Minor changes (merged)
https://github.com/Azure/sonic-swss/pull/1321 - gearsyncd, config parsers, changes to orchargent to create gearbox phy on supported systems
https://github.com/Azure/sonic-sairedis/pull/624 - physyncd, virtual BCM81724 gearbox phy added to vslib
**- How to verify it**
In a vslib build:
root@sonic:/home/admin# show gearbox interfaces status
PHY Id Interface MAC Lanes MAC Lane Speed PHY Lanes PHY Lane Speed Line Lanes Line Lane Speed Oper Admin

In addition, docker ps | grep phy should show a physyncd docker running.

virtual-chassis test uses multiple vs instances to simulate a
modular switch and a redis-chassis service is required to run on
the vs instance that represents a supervisor card.
This change allows vs docker start redis-chassis service according
to external config file.
**- Why I did it**
To support virtual-chassis setup, so that we can test distributed forwarding feature in virtual sonic environment, see `Distributed forwarding in a VOQ architecture HLD` pull request at https://github.com/Azure/SONiC/pull/622
**- How I did it**
The sonic-vs start.sh is enhanced to start new redis_chassis service if external chassis config file found. The config file doesn't exist in current vs environment, start.sh will behave like before.
**- How to verify it**
The swss/test still pass. The chassis_db service is verified in virtual-chassis topology and tests which are in following PRs.
