[swss]: Update swss.sh script to clean up specific db when start

This script shall not flush all the entries in the state database
when it starts up, since there are entries maintained and written
by other processes outside this docker.

The issue we noticed was that the portchannel states are cleaned
up after teamsyncd writes the entries into the database, which
causes the IPs failed to be configured because intfmgrd considers
the portchannels are not ready yet.
