Correct mapping errors

Since we now support the dynamic addition of hosts to the orte_node_pool, there is no longer any reason to require advanced specification of all possible nodes. Instead, use a precedence method to initially allocate only those hosts that were specified in the cmd line:

* rankfile, if given, as that will specify the nodes

* -host, aggregated across all app_contexts

* -hostfile, aggregated across all app_contexts

* default hostfile

* assign local node

Fix slots_inuse accounting so that the nodes are correctly reset upon error termination - e.g., when oversubscribed without permission.

Ensure we accurately track the user's specified desires for oversubscribe and no-use-local when dynamically spawning jobs.
