Description of PR
Summary:
Packet trimming configuration depends on the chip, but currently everything is based on constants. In order to support multiple chips we should refactor all packet trimming configuration to retrieve values through functions that check the asic name in duthost.

Approach
What is the motivation for this PR?
Packet trimming tests today are written with only small set of chips in mind. The test uses constants for all configuration values. In an effort to support packet trimming on Arista Quicksilver512, we found these constants did not work to configure the chip.
How did you do it?
Refactored any config related constants into functions that are accessed through the class
PacketTrimmingConfig. These static methods requireduthostto be passed in such that values returned can be based onduthost.get_asic_name().How did you verify/test it?
We have been running packet trimming tests internally with this refactor and have sorted out any failures related to this refactor.
Any platform specific information?
Supported testbed topology if it's a new test case?
