INTERNAL: STL-59403
The OFI (libfabric) MTL does not respect the maximum message size
parameter that OFI provides in the fi_info data.
This patch adds this missing max_msg_size field to the mca_ofi_module_t
structure and adds a length check to the low-level send routines.

With MTLs, there's no "other transport" when the remote side
does not have an active NIC, so we should print a useful error
message when the modex failed (indicating lack of a NIC on
the remote side).

Moving to a model where we have users actively _enable_ SEP feature for use
rather than opening SEP by default if provider supports it. This allows us to
not regress (either functionally or for performance reasons) any apps that were
working correctly on regular endpoints.
Also, providing MCA to specify number of OFI contexts to create and default
this value to 1 (Given btl/ofi also creates one by default, this reduces the
incidence of a scenario where we allocate all available contexts by default and
if btl/ofi asks for one more, then provider breaks as it doesn't support it).
While at it, spruce up README on SEP content.

OFI MTL supports OFI Scalable Endpoints feature as means to improve
multi-threaded application throughput and message rate. Currently the feature
is designed to utilize multiple TX/RX contexts exposed by the OFI provider in
conjunction with a multi-communicator MPI application model. For more
information, refer to README under mtl/ofi.

OFI providers may reserve some of the upper bits of the tag for
internal usage and expose it using mem_tag_format. Check for that
and adjust communicator bits as needed.

Currently, the progress function is incorrectly interpreting any error
value other than a positive value or -FI_EAVAIL to mean CQ is empty.
CQ is empty only if fi_cq_read() call returned -EAGAIN error
code. Fix that here.
While at it, fix help text output for calls made to OFI API.
