In preparation for moving the BTLs down to OPAL, discontinue the use
of the RML for connectivity client/agent communication. Instead, use
local unix domain sockets in the job session directory (all
communication is between processes on the same server, so unix domain
sockets are fine).

We're passing a char foo[x] into PACK_BYTES, so we don't need to take
its address in the macro. This is parallel to the UNPACK_BYTES macro
(where we pass a char bar[x] into it, and don't take its address in
the macro).
The value we're packing is only used to output in a show_help message,
which is why this wasn't noticed before (i.e., it's not used in
network or addressing that would have caused a failure).

* clang warning stomp
* memory barrier for volatile variable use
These can go to 1.7.5 or can slip to v1.8 -- RM decision.

This commit was SVN r30944.
Basically: since usnic is a connectionless transport, we do not get
OS-provided services "for free" that connection-oriented transports
get, namely: "hey, I wasn't able to make a connection to peer X", and
"hey, your connection to peer X has died."
This connectivity-checker runs in a separate progress thread in the
usnic BTL in local rank 0 on each server. Upon first send in any
process, the connectivty-checker agent will send some UDP pings to the
peer to ensure that we can reach it. If we can't, we'll abort the job
with a nice show_help message.
There's a lengthy comment in btl_usnic_connectivity.h explains the
scheme and how it works.
