[ZTP] firmware plugin: predefined task of removing of existing image fails.

[MaxYaremchuk]

Description Attempt of removing inactive sonic image by firmware's remove plugin fails. In syslog it claims that image is not specified but it has been specified in ztp config file.

Steps to reproduce the issue

1. Install two images on the switch.
2. Boot sonic with ZTP enabled feature
3. Specify in the remove section the name of currently inactive image to be removed.

   sonic_installer list
   Current: SONiC-OS-HEAD.0-f6a8678d
   Next: SONiC-OS-HEAD.0-f6a8678d
   Available: 
   SONiC-OS-HEAD.0-f6a8678d
   SONiC-OS-HEAD.0-fffee7e3   <==this image is supposed to be removed

   cat /var/run/ztp/ztp_data_opt67.json
   {
       "ztp": {
               "01-firmware": {
                       "remove": {
                               "image": "SONiC-OS-HEAD.0-fffee7e3" 
                       }
                }
       }
   }

4. Announce DHCP option 67 pointing to ztp_config.json (see at the bottom)
5. Initiate ZTP one more time

   ztp erase
   ztp run

Please use "version" : "SONiC-OS-HEAD.0-fffee7e3" instead of "image" : "SONiC-OS-HEAD.0-fffee7e3". Please refer to the ZTP HLD https://github.com/Azure/SONiC/blob/master/doc/ztp/ztp.md#firmware

Hi @rajendra-dendukuri Thank you for having answered me. There is a mistake in manual.

  "firmware": {
    "remove": {
      "image": "SONiC-OS-brcm_xlr_gts.0-dirty-20190304.154831"
    }
  }

Please change it on "version": "SONiC-OS-brcm_xlr_gts.0-dirty-20190304.154831" in the manual. Thanks.
