NOTE: launch performance will be absolutely awful if you do this with BTLs that aren't configured to modex_recv on first message!
Even with "modex on demand", we still have to do a barrier in place of the modex - we simply don't move any data around, which does reduce the time impact. The barrier is required to ensure that the other proc has in fact registered all its BTL info and therefore is prepared to hand over a complete data package. Otherwise, you may not get the info you need. In addition, the shared memory BTL can fail to properly rendezvous as it expects the barrier to be in place.
This behavior will *only* take effect under the following conditions:
1. launched via mpirun
2. #procs is greater than ompi_hostname_cutoff, which defaults to UINT32_MAX
3. mca param rte_orte_direct_modex is set to 1. At the moment, we are having problems getting this param to register properly, so only the first two conditions are in effect. Still, the bottom line is you have to *want* this behavior to get it.
The planned next evolution of this will be to make the direct modex be non-blocking - this will require two fixes:
1. if the remote proc doesn't have the required info, then let it delay its response until it does. This means we need a way for the MPI layer to tell the RTE "I am done entering modex data".
2. adjust the SM rendezvous logic to loop until the required file has been created
Creating a placeholder to bring this over to 1.7.5 when ready.

pkg{data,lib,includedir}, use our own ompi{data,lib,includedir}, which is
always set to {datadir,libdir,includedir}/openmpi. This will keep us from
having help files in prefix/share/open-rte when building without Open MPI,
but in prefix/share/openmpi when building with Open MPI.

This patch changes all send/send_buffer occurrences in the C/R code
to send_nb/send_buffer_nb.
The new code compiles but does not work.
Changes from V1:
* #ifdef out the code (so it is preserved for later re-design)
* marked the broken C/R code with ENABLE_FT_FIXED
Changes from V2:
* just replace the blocking calls with the non-blocking calls
* all #ifdef's introduced in V1 are gone
* send_* returns error code or ORTE_SUCCESS (not the number of bytes)

This patch changes all recv/recv_buffer occurrences in the C/R code
to recv_nb/recv_buffer_nb.
The old code is still there but disabled using ifdefs (ENABLE_FT_FIXED).
The new code compiles but does not work.
Changes from V1:
* #ifdef out the code (so it is preserved for later re-design)
* marked the broken C/R code with ENABLE_FT_FIXED
Changes from V2:
* only #ifdef out the code where the behaviour is changed
(used to be blocking; now non-blocking)

Reset topology usage for each node as we bind as multiple nodes may be linked to the same topology object. This will need to be revisited for scale as it does take some non-zero time to reset the usage each iteration. However, storing individual topology objects for every node consumes memory, so it's a tradeoff.
