Enabling IRF auto merge

When two IRF fabrics merge, you must reboot the member devices in the IRF fabric that fails in the master
election. The auto merge function enables the IRF fabric to reboot all its member devices automatically to
complete the merge.
This function can work only when it is enabled on both IRF fabrics that are merging.
The IRF auto merge function does not take effect on the IRF fabric merge caused by binding a physical
port to an IRF port in IRF mode. You must manually reboot the devices that have been defeated in the
master election to complete the merge.
