This commit adds a new configure option: --enable-mpi1-compat. Without
this option we will no longer provide APIs, typedefs, and defines that
were removed from the standard in MPI-3.0. This option will exist for
one major release (Open MPI v4.x.x) and then the option and associated
code will be removed in Open MPI v5.x.x. Open MPI has already
internally prepared for this change. Please prepare your codes
accordingly.

The MPI spec defines that the "mpi" and "mpi_f08" module Fortran
bindings support passing by parameters by name. Hence, we need to use
the MPI-spec-defined parameter names ("dummy variables", in Fortran
parlance) for the "mpi" and "mpi_f08" modules.
Specifically, Fortran allows calls to procedures to be written with
keyword arguments, e.g., "call mpi_sizeof(x=x,size=rsize,ierror=ier)"
An "explicit interface" for the procedure must be in scope for this to
be allowed in a Fortran program unit. Therefore, the explicit
interface blocks we provide in the "mpi" and "mpi_f08" modules must
match the MPI published standard, including the names of the dummy
variables (i.e., parameter names), as that is how Fortran programs may
call them.
Note that we didn't find this issue previously because even though the
MPI spec *allows* for name-based parameter passing, not many people
actually use it. I suspect that we might have some more incorrect
parameter names -- we should probably do a full "mpi" / "mpi_f08"
module parameter name audit someday.
Thanks to Themos Tsikas for reporting the issue and supplying the
initial fix.

MPI_Sizeof related stuff has been moved to their own files.
Remove MPI_Sizeof from Fortran interfaces when it cannot be built
(e.g. stock gcc 4.8 on CentOS 7)
