OMPI_* to OPAL_*. This allows opal layer to be used more independent
from the whole of ompi.

and https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/ticket/1853, mallopt() hints do
not always work -- it is possible for memory to be returned to the OS
and therefore OMPI's registration cache becomes invalid.
This commit removes all use of mallopt() and uses a different way to
integrate ptmalloc2 than we have done in the past. In particular, we
use almost exactly the same technique as MX:
* Remove all uses of mallopt, to include the opal/memory mallopt
component.
* Name-shift all of OMPI's internal ptmalloc2 public symbols (e.g.,
malloc -> opal_memory_ptmalloc2_malloc).
* At run-time, use the existing glibc allocator malloc hook function
pointers to fully hijack the glibc allocator with our own
name-shifted ptmalloc2.
* Make the decision whether to hijack the glibc allocator ''at run
time'' (vs. at link time, as previous ptmalloc2 integration
attempts have done). Look at the OMPI_MCA_mpi_leave_pinned
and OMPI_MCA_mpi_leave_pinned_pipeline environment variables and
the existence of /sys/class/infiniband to determine if we should
install the hooks or not.
* As an added bonus, we can now tell if libopen-pal is linked
statically or dynamically, and if we're linked statically, we
assume that munmap intercept support doesn't work.
See the opal/mca/memory/ptmalloc2/README-open-mpi.txt file for all the
gory details about the implementation.
Fixes trac:1853.

a standalone library named libopenmpi-malloc. Users wanting to
use leave_pinned with ptmalloc2 will now need to link the library
into their application explicitly. All other users will use the
libc-provided allocator instead of Open MPI's ptmalloc2. This change
may be overriden with the configure option enable-ptmalloc2-internal
- The leave_pinned options will now default to using mallopt on
Linux in the cases where ptmalloc2 was not linked in. mallopt
will also only be available if munmap can be intercepted (the
default whenever Open MPI is not compiled with --without-memory-
manager.
- Open MPI will now complain and refuse to use leave_pinned if
no memory intercept / mallopt option is available.

both mmap and munmap), adjusting the configure script so that the
component will only be activated on systems that use ptmalloc2 in the
first place -- ie, Linux
* Remove the malloc_hooks component - it became an unworkable solution
once threads and such were considered.
* Remove malloc_interpose component - it never worked quite right and
was not going to be able to intercept malloc, so it wasn't going to
be useful for OMPI's purposes.
* Update tests a little bit to match recent memory hooks api
issues - still needs a bit of work.

AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE, instead of the deprecated version.
* Work around dumbness in modern AC_INIT that requires the version
number to be set at autoconf time (instead of at configure time, as
it was before). Set the version number, minus the subversion r number,
at autoconf time. Override the internal variables to include the r
number (if needed) at configure time. Basically, the right thing
should always happen. The only place it might not is the version
reported as part of configure --help will not have an r number.
* Since AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE taks a list of options, no need to specify
them in all the Makefile.am files.
* Addes support for subdir-objects, meaning that object files are put
in the directory containing source files, even if the Makefile.am is
in another directory. This should start making it feasible to
reduce the number of Makefile.am files we have in the tree, which
will greatly reduce the time to run autogen and configure.
