what is ASIC_DB2? it is unclear what it is.

Hi Guohan;
The new ASIC_DB2 (as well as counters, flex, and state) database designations are being used by Gearbox and the new PHY SYNCD DOCKER.
These definitions are also specified in the specific HWSKU context_config.json files, such as in the following excerpt;
{
"guid" : 1,
"name" : "phy1",
"dbAsic" : "ASIC_DB2",
"dbCounters" : "COUNTERS_DB2",
"dbFlex": "FLEX_COUNTER_DB2",
"dbState" : "STATE_DB2",
"switches": [
{
"index" : 1,
"hwinfo" : ""
}
]
}

I think we should rename it to PHY_DB

Just thinking ahead here...
The design supports multiple phys for which each phy "could" have their own set of databases.
So I'm guessing the naming scheme made something like?
PHY_DB
PHY_DB2
etc...
?

We used asic_db2 because we antiipate multiple switches in the future, and phy and switch are not differentiated in sairedis, so I believe we should give them all the same name. In the future, we may have multiredis support and we might then consider not needing this (redis then become namespace for the table names, one redis per switch). Please accept the change as it currently is proposed, future this might change but for now, asic_db2 is most consistent naming for switch related tables.

I think all the phy db can be put into the same db since there are not much query/config activities. I think PHY_DB is a better name and give user more information on the nature of this db.

just to clarify, a added "2" for each of second db names since i didn't have any better name, we could add PHY or GB (as gearbox) prefixx or something more explanatory then just "2"

Please Merge this ASAP as we have other dependent PR's pending on this. |

@lguohan removed gearboxutils, explained why the naming convention was chosen. Re-requesting review. Thanks! |

@lguohan thank you for the review and approval |
