This change also includes:
- Refactoring of gNMI protocol+driver to take advantage of the recent
changes to the gRPC protocol subsystem (e.g. no more locking, start RPC
with timeouts, etc.).
- Fixed Stratum driver to work after GeneralDeviceProvider refactoring
- Updated bmv2.py to generate ChassisConfig for stratum_bmv2
- Fixed portstate command to use the same port name as in the store

This (big) change aims at solving the issue observed with mastership flapping
and device connection/disconnection with P4Runtime.
Channel handling is now based on the underlying gRPC channel state. Before,
channel events (open/close/error) were generated as a consequence of P4Runtime
StreamChannel events, making device availability dependent on mastership. Now
Stream Channel events only affect mastership (MASTER/STANDBY or NONE when the
SteamChannel RPC is not active).
Mastership handling has been refactored to generate P4Runtime election IDs that
are compatible with the mastership preference decided by the MastershipService.
GeneralDeviceProvider has been re-implemented to support in-order
device event processing and to reduce implementation complexity. Stats polling
has been moved to a separate component, and netcfg handling updated to only
depend on BasicDeviceConfig, augmented with a pipeconf field, and re-using the
managementAddress field to set the gRPC server endpoints (e.g.
grpc://myswitch.local:50051). Before it was depending on 3 different config
classes, making hard to detect changes.
Finally, this change affects some core interfaces:
- Adds a method to DeviceProvider and DeviceHandshaker to check for device
availability, making the meaning of availability device-specific. This is needed
in cases where the device manager needs to change the availability state of a
device (as in change #20842)
- Support device providers not capable of reconciling mastership role responses
with requests (like P4Runtime).
- Clarify the meaning of "connection" in the DeviceConnect behavior.
- Allows driver-based providers to check devices for reachability and
availability without probing the device via the network.

- Write calls to file, one file for each channel
- Log started, inbound msg, outbound msg, and closed events, for each RPC
- Distinguish between different RPCs by assigning an ID to each one
Also, removed redundant DeviceId attribute from GrpcChannelId, as all
channel IDs were already created using a client key that contains the
DeviceID. It seems a better approach to not restrict the definition of a
channel ID and have that defined simply as a string.

Includes also other minor changes to gRPC channel creation/connection
process, such as:
- More compact logs showing the gRPC client key
- GrpcChannelController.connectChannel() now returns the same
StatusRuntime exception, no need to wrap it in an IOException
- Wait for channel shutdown after initial connection error
