What I did
This change introduces the PDE (platform development environment which is described here,
Azure/SONiC#407
The goal of the PDE is to provide a lightweight development environment for ODMs to quickly develop and test their platform plugins and validate necessary platform configuration files for proper SAI operation. Futhermore the PDE provides a pytest based suite to provide quick automated validation of platform plugins using JSON test and configuration data to describe the platform which is being tested.
How I did it
PDE test code is located under src/sonic-platform-pdk-pde
Build infrastructure will be introduced in a pull request in sonic-buildimage
How to verify it
The PDE environment must first be enabled in rules/config (ENABLE_PDE=y) must be un-commented.
Second, build target command is "make target/sonic-$MACHINE-pde.bin
Description for the changelog
