Network device ports showing in the module slots

For modular switches, originally all the ports were clustered together, even with correct module association for those ports. We have changed the behavior to show the ports in each module.
FEX modules with correct ports
Similarly as modular switches, for distributed switches like Cisco Nexus switches, all the ports showed up on the main device. This is now corrected to show the ports that belong to FEX modules to show in respective modules.
Support for alpha-numeric slot #s for blades/modules
Based on user feedback, we have added support for alpha numeric slot #s for blades in a chassis.
