[xcvrd] replace check_active_linked_tor_side api to check_mux_directi…

…on (#131)

Summary:
This PR provides replaces the logic to check mux_direction on the y_cable by checking the mux_direction register instead of actively linked and routing TOR register
Approach
added the changes in y_cable_helper.py by replacing the API

What is the motivation for this PR?
check_mux_direction is required as per design to replace the active_linked_tor_side
active_linked_tor_side -> check_mux_direction
check_mux_direction will be utlized as for establishing mux direction explicitly
