[chassis] [MA] PFC commands does not support multi-asic platforms

Description

Issue:

$sudo config interface -n asic1 pfc priority Ethernet80 3 on
Cannot find interface Ethernet80
$ sudo config interface -n asic0 pfc priority Ethernet80 3 on
Cannot find interface Ethernet80

Root cause is this https://github.com/sonic-net/sonic-utilities/blob/master/pfc/main.py file does not take any namespace as input, thus all the config db in this file is the host's config db, so the execution of all PFC commands in this file are incorrect if it depends on asic's config db.. e.g. config pfc priority is finding table 'PORT_QOS_MAP' which only exists in asic's config db.

The solution is hard to achieve, because the file itself is called by utilities_common.cli, need to find a way to pass additional arguments such as ctx or namespace

Workaround:

$ sudo ip netns exec asic0 config interface -n asic0 pfc priority Ethernet0 1 on

Interface    Lossless priorities
-----------  ---------------------
Ethernet0    1,3,4
