Why I did this?
Due to a limitation in mellanox platform, sonic ignores syncs graceful shutdown in syncd.sh previously. However, ignoring graceful shutdown in syncd.sh also ignores closing other resources such as removing all counters.
This PR is going to ignore remove_switch for mellanox platform when shutdown type is cold. It make sure other shutdown operations are properly executed in shutdown flow.
How I test this?
Running config reload on many platforms and check result.
