Why I did it
Up to now, building Mellanox SDK debian packages was done by "autotools" method.
Lately, Mellanox SDK team added the support to build by "cmake" method.
The benefit of using "cmake" is with decrease time of SDK build as "cmake" make it faster then "auto build".
When moving to "cmake" method, all SDK debians:
will be replaced by single debian - sys_sdk.
