The test cast test_fdb is failing consistently on some testbed. The root cause for the failure is the double loop among all interfaces costs too much time, which is beyond the fdb age (10 minutes in default). This PR address the issue by introducing a module level fixture to disable FDB aging. Signed-off-by: bingwang <bingwang@microsoft.com>

This commit introduces two updates: 1. Use swssconfig instead of bcmcmd to disable fdb aging 2. Clear ptfafapter's dataplane after sending warmup packet to ensure the queue in testutil's dataplane is not filled up. Signed-off-by: bingwang <bingwang@microsoft.com>

This commit change the destination mac of arp request to router mac. This is because the broadcast arp request to DUT will be broadcast to all vlan members, as a result, a large amount of packets are generated, which can't be handled by ptfadapter in time.

Description of PR
Summary:
Fixes # (issue)
The test case
test_fdbis failing consistently on some testbed (like A7260). The root cause for the failure is the double loop among all interfaces costs too much time, which is beyond the fdb age (10 minutes in default). This PR address the issue by introducing a module level fixture to disable FDB aging.This commit also clears the dataplane of testutil to ensure that the packet queue inside testutil is not filled up.
