Fix: initialize SonicDBConfig differently for single or multi_asic (c…

…ontinued) (#1417)

**- What I did**
This bug is exposed by #1392. Previously the `config` command will call `SonicDBConfig.load_sonic_global_db_config()` even on a single ASIC platform, and it will silently failed. After exposed, it will fail with error syslog message:
```
Feb  9 05:04:46.462361 vlab-01 ERR python3: :- initializeGlobalConfig: Sonic database config global file doesn't exist at /var/run/redis/sonic-db/database_global.json
```

**- How to verify it**
Unit test and test in DUT.
