Update the OPAL_CHECK_OFI configury macro:
- Make it safe to call the macro multiple times:
- The checks only execute the first time it is invoked
- Subsequent invocations, it just emits a friendly "checking..."
message so that configure output is sensible/logical
- With the goal of ultimately removing opal/mca/common/ofi, rename the
output variables from OPAL_CHECK_OFI to be
opal_ofi_{happy|CPPFLAGS|LDFLAGS|LIBS}.
- Update btl/ofi, btl/usnic, and mtl/ofi for these new conventions.
- Also, don't use AC_REQUIRE to invoke OPAL_CHECK_OFI because that
causes the macro to be invoked at a fairly random time, which makes
configure stdout confusing / hard to grok.
- Remove a little left-over kruft in OPAL_CHECK_OFI, too (which
resulted in an indenting change, making the change to
opal_check_ofi.m4 look larger than it really is).
Thanks Alastair McKinstry for the report and initial fix.
Thanks Rashika Kheria for the reminder.

This PR renames the common library for OFI libfabric from
libfabric to ofi. There are a number of reasons this
is good to do:
1) its shorter and replaces 9 characters with three for
function names for what may eventually be a fairly extensive interface
2) OFI is the term used for MTL and RML components that use
the OFI libfabric interface
3) A planned OSC component will also use the OFI term.
4) Other HPC libraries that can use OFI libfabric tend to use
the term "ofi" internally and also in their configure options
relevant to OFI libfabric (i.e. MPICH/CH4, Intel MPI, Sandia SHMEM)
There seem to be comments in places in the Open MPI source
code that indicate that this common library will be going away.
Far from it as we will want to be able to share things like
AV objects between OMPI and possibly OSHMEM components that
use the OFI libfabric interface.
This PR also adds a synonym to the --with-libfabric(-libdir)
configury options: --with-ofi and with-ofi-libdir.
