Problem: Consider a scenario where an application (adapter host) using SAI spec X (say) warmboots to an application using new SAI spec Y (say). If an enum is extended between X and Y with fields inserted "in between" rather than "at the end" of the enum, the old fields can get "renumbered". However, the SAI implementation (adapter) continues to return old enums for previously returned objects thereby breaking the warmboot. Fix this by moving the newly inserted fields "to the end" (this could mean at the end of _END block) to keep the enum field values the same. Specifically, below patch was first introduced in v1.7.0 and inserted enum fields 'in betweeen': opencomputeproject@1aeb1c8 Thus, - In 1.6.5: SAI_ACL_ENTRY_ATTR_FIELD_DSCP is 4126, SAI_ACL_ENTRY_ATTR_ACTION_SET_DSCP is 8214 etc. - In 1.8.1: SAI_ACL_ENTRY_ATTR_FIELD_DSCP is 4134, SAI_ACL_ENTRY_ATTR_ACTION_SET_DSCP is 8216 etc. If the application created ACL entry with SAI_ACL_ENTRY_ATTR_FIELD_DSCP (4126) prior to warmboot, even after warmboot, a get query on that ACL entry returns 4126 which no longer means SAI_ACL_ENTRY_ATTR_FIELD_DSCP. This patch fixes it by moving all the newly introduced ACL fields to the end. Signed-off-by: zecheng@fb.com Signed-off-by: Shrikrishna Khare <skhare@fb.com>

for previously returned objects thereby breaking the warmboot.
