[GCU] Add RemoveCreateOnlyDependency Validator/Generator

[wen587]

What I did

Refer #2273

Efficiency Improvement:

• Add RemoveCreateOnlyDependency Generator and Validator.

What is the problem?

• Lanes is create-only field, so the parent /PORT/Ethernet124 for example needs to be deleted then added.
• Deletion of the /PORT/Ethernet124 requires deletion of all of its dependencies.
• In the DUT there are around 18 different dependencies
• The search algorithm to find the moves to apply is not very efficient in this case, what it does is find the first dependency delete it. Then it will try to add the dependency back because it thinks this will bring us closer to the final goal config. But then it realizes adding the config back, will bring us back to a visited state. So we move on and try to delete another dependency, after that the search algorithm will try to add the first dependency, but this time the config state was not visited before because that's a new state.

Check the following to better understand:
initial state:

port ethernet124
dep1
dep2
dep3

Deletion dep1

port ethernet124
dep2
dep3

Adding dep1 back will rejected, because it will move us back to the initial state
Try and delete dep2

port ethernet124
dep3

Try and add dep1

port ethernet124
dep1
dep3

Now the above is a valid state, but it is useless. If you can expand that to 18 dependencies we end up with a lot of tries that are useless.

Solution is to add a custom validator that understand that once a dependency is deleted, do not add it back until we delete the /PORT/Ethernet124

Also add a generator for the deletion to make it faster to pick the dependencies to remove.

How I did it

Added new validator/generator for handling the lane replacement case. The validator/generator understands that for which create-only fields and their dependencies need to be removed.

How to verify it

Unit Test.

Previous command output (if the output of a command-line utility has changed)

New command output (if the output of a command-line utility has changed)

Hi @qiluo-msft , still need to confirm admin_status need to be set with "down" for PORT["lanes"] change.

[qiluo-msft]

Yes. PORT["lanes"] are created only field. If the user require to change this field, we need to delete port and create new port. It is already a disruptive change, set admin_status to down will make it super safe on all platform, and does not make things worse.

Should also add to 202211.
