ASIC Firmware update control

[fastiuk]

This PR depends on fastiuk/sonic-buildimage#5

Why I did it

• Add an ability to control ASIC FW update
  • Ability to enable/disable FW update
  • Ability to choose FW source: image/user-defined

How to verify it

Build SONiC
or
When SONiC was already built:

rm -f target/python-wheels/bullseye/sonic_yang_models-1.0-py3-none-any.whl
BLDENV=bullseye make -f Makefile.work target/python-wheels/bullseye/sonic_yang_models-1.0-py3-none-any.whl
rm -f target/sonic-mellanox.bin
make target/sonic-mellanox.bin

Login into the switch.
Disable FW auto-update:

redis-cli -n 4 HSET "FIRMWARE|asic" "auto_update" "disable"
sudo reboot

See the results:

Enable auto-update, change source to user-defined and copy FW image in place:

redis-cli -n 4 HSET "FIRMWARE|asic" "auto_update" "enable"
redis-cli -n 4 HSET "FIRMWARE|asic" "default" "user"
sudo mkdir -p /host/mlnx/asic/
sudo cp /tmp/fw-SPC2-rel-29_2010_2270-EVB.mfa /host/mlnx/asic/fw.mfa
sudo reboot
