container_checker on supervisor should check containers based on asic…

… presence (#11442)

Why I did it
On a supervisor card in a chassis, syncd/teamd/swss/lldp etc dockers are created for each Switch Fabric card. However, not all chassis would have all the switch fabric cards present. In this case, only dockers for Switch Fabrics present would be created.

The monit 'container_checker' fails in this scenario as it is expecting dockers for all Switch Fabrics (based on NUM_ASIC defined in asic.conf file).
