A Dell SONiC driver has been added upstream: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/networking-generic-switch/+/955252 This change adds a minimal Dell SONiC driver downstream. This is essentially the existing SONiC driver, but with a slightly different enable mode command. The change to the enable mode may not be required by the time we end up using the upstream driver. This is because the upstream driver has been developed against SONiC 4.5 which is more recent than the version used to develop this patch. This driver requires the switch to be configured to use the standard or standard-extended naming mode. Change-Id: Id263aa2757152012afdd6facb9f5fcd78fcc7ad8
