Modify the RMAPS framework so we eliminate communicating a map to a backend node when certain attributes are set. The proxy functions are now implemented in the base, and a check made for HNP/non-HNP operation made in the map_jobs function prior to execution.

1. new functionality in the pls base to check for reusable daemons and launch upon them
2. an extension of the odls API to allow each odls component to build a notify message with the "correct" data in it for adding processes to the local daemon. This means that the odls now opens components on the HNP as well as on daemons - but that's the price of allowing so much flexibility. Only the default odls has this functionality enabled - the others just return NOT_IMPLEMENTED
3. addition of a new command line option "--reuse-daemons" to orterun. The default, for now, is to NOT reuse daemons. Once we have more time to test this capability, we may choose to reverse the default. For one thing, we probably want to investigate the tradeoffs in start time for comm_spawn'd processes that reuse daemons versus launch their own. On some systems, though, having another daemon show up can cause problems - so they may want to set the default as "reuse".
This is ONLY enabled for rsh launch, at the moment. The code needing to be added to each launcher is about three lines long, so I'll be doing that as I get access to machines I can test it on.

1. Fix the "hang" condition when an application isn't found. It turned out that the ODLS had some difficulty with the process actually not having been started - hence, it never called the waitpid callback. As a result, the "terminated" trigger didn't fire, and so mpirun didn't wake up. With this change, the HNP's errmgr forces the issue by causing the trigger to fire itself when an abort condition occurs.
2. Shift the recording of the pid and the nodename from mpi_init to the orted launcher. This allows programs such as Eclipse PTP to get the pids even for non-MPI applications. In the case of bproc, the pls handles this chore since we don't use orteds in that system.
