Manually cherry-picking #11893
Why I did it
The timer execution may fail if triggered during a config reload (when the sonic.target is stopped). This might happen in a rare situation if config reload is executed after reboot in a small time slot (for 0 to 30 seconds) before the tacacs-config timer is triggered:
systemctl status tacacs-config.timer
tacacs-config.timer - Delays tacacs apply until SONiC has started

How I did it
To ensure that timer execution will be resumed after a config reload the WantedBy section of the systemd service is updated to describe relation to sonic.target.
How to verify it
Reboot the system
After reboot monitor tacacs-config.timer status. 30 seconds before timer activation run "config reload -y" command.
Check system status.
