fix the muxcable state change notification received from other module…

…s, omit the check inside hw_state table (#159)

This change essentially omits a look inside the state DB for HW_MUX_CABLE_TABLE and just directly goes to the muxcable
eeprom to either toggle or remain Iin the same state as is requested from the incoming message from orchagent, and then write back to the DB

Description
This fix will help in debugging the initialization loop since now other modules will not be dependent on stale state present in
HW_MUX_CABLE_TABLE.

How Has This Been Tested?
Tested on starlab testbed with integration of other modules
