Reduce image size for lazy installation packages (sonic-net#10775)
Why I did it
The image size is too large, when there are multiple lazy packages and multiple platforms. It is not necessary to keep the lazy installation packages in multiple copies.
For cisco image, the image size will reduce from 3.5G to 1.7G.
How I did it
Use symbol links to only keep one package for each of the lazy package.
Make a new folder fsroot/platform/common
Copy the lazy packages into the folder.
When using a package in each of the platform, such as x86_64-grub, x86_64-8800_rp-r0, x86_64-8201_on-r0, etc, only make a symbol link to the package in the common folder.
