Remove configure.params support: configure.params hasn't been used in
years.
Also remove autogen.subdirs support; those should really be handled by
their respective Makefile.am's.
WHAT: Open our low-level communication infrastructure by moving all necessary components (btl/rcache/allocator/mpool) down in OPAL
All the components required for inter-process communications are currently deeply integrated in the OMPI layer. Several groups/institutions have express interest in having a more generic communication infrastructure, without all the OMPI layer dependencies. This communication layer should be made available at a different software level, available to all layers in the Open MPI software stack. As an example, our ORTE layer could replace the current OOB and instead use the BTL directly, gaining access to more reactive network interfaces than TCP. Similarly, external software libraries could take advantage of our highly optimized AM (active message) communication layer for their own purpose. UTK with support from Sandia, developped a version of Open MPI where the entire communication infrastucture has been moved down to OPAL (btl/rcache/allocator/mpool). Most of the moved components have been updated to match the new schema, with few exceptions (mainly BTLs where I have no way of compiling/testing them). Thus, the completion of this RFC is tied to being able to completing this move for all BTLs. For this we need help from the rest of the Open MPI community, especially those supporting some of the BTLs. A non-exhaustive list of BTLs that qualify here is: mx, portals4, scif, udapl, ugni, usnic.

Either we need to ensure that all events are deleted (which may prove difficult), or find another way to release the base memory.

r31765 --> open-mpi/ompi@75fb6dbba9
This fixes a series of leaks identified by valgrind. Since
opal_event_base_open was creating the event base it follows that
opal_event_base_close should release the event base.

top_ompi_srcdir -> OMPI_TOP_SRCDIR
top_ompi_builddir -> OMPI_TOP_BUILDDIR
We also split the srcdir/builddir flags according to their local tree (e.g., OPAL_TOP_SRCDIR), and tied them all together in configure.ac. Renamed ompi_ignore and ompi_unignore to be opal_<foo> as these are agnostic markers.
Only thing left is ompilibdir being treated similar to what we dif for srcdir/builddir. Coming soon.

Revamp the opal database framework, including renaming it to "dstore" to reflect that it isn't a "database". Move the "db" framework to ORTE for now, soon to move to ORCM

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.

got linked together (work on one caused work in the other):
* Clean up a bunch of VAR_SCOPE issues in configure. This includes:
* Using VAR_SCOPE_PUSH and VAR_SCOPE_POP in more places
* Cleaning up the use of some shell variables (e.g., name them better)
* Add support for external libevent via
--with-libevent=<dir-to-libevent-install-tree>, as specifically
asked for by downstream packagers.
* Revamp how wrapper compiler RPATH (and RUNPATH) support is done.
The external libevent work exposed weakenesses in how the original
RPATH/RUNPATH work was done, so we had to re-do it to be a bit more
robust.
This work has not yet been tested on Solaris.

This is helpful in the work for #3694: ensure that many places that
eventually end up in configure don't overly-pollute the global shell
variable space (because debugging accidental shell variable pollution
can be a real pain).

Features:
- Support for an override parameter file (openmpi-mca-param-override.conf).
Variable values in this file can not be overridden by any file or environment
value.
- Support for boolean, unsigned, and unsigned long long variables.
- Support for true/false values.
- Support for enumerations on integer variables.
- Support for MPIT scope, verbosity, and binding.
- Support for command line source.
- Support for setting variable source via the environment using
OMPI_MCA_SOURCE_<var name>=source (either command or file:filename)
- Cleaner API.
- Support for variable groups (equivalent to MPIT categories).
Notes:
- Variables must be created with a backing store (char **, int *, or bool *)
that must live at least as long as the variable.
- Creating a variable with the MCA_BASE_VAR_FLAG_SETTABLE enables the use of
mca_base_var_set_value() to change the value.
- String values are duplicated when the variable is registered. It is up to
the caller to free the original value if necessary. The new value will be
freed by the mca_base_var system and must not be freed by the user.
- Variables with constant scope may not be settable.
- Variable groups (and all associated variables) are deregistered when the
component is closed or the component repository item is freed. This
prevents a segmentation fault from accessing a variable after its component
is unloaded.
- After some discussion we decided we should remove the automatic registration
of component priority variables. Few component actually made use of this
feature.
- The enumerator interface was updated to be general enough to handle
future uses of the interface.
- The code to generate ompi_info output has been moved into the MCA variable
system. See mca_base_var_dump().
opal: update core and components to mca_base_var system
orte: update core and components to mca_base_var system
ompi: update core and components to mca_base_var system
This commit also modifies the rmaps framework. The following variables were
moved from ppr and lama: rmaps_base_pernode, rmaps_base_n_pernode,
rmaps_base_n_persocket. Both lama and ppr create synonyms for these variables.

flags, and mca flags are kept seperate until the very end. The main configure
wrapper flags should now be modified by using the OPAL_WRAPPER_FLAGS_ADD
macro. MCA components should either let <framework>_<component>_{LIBS,LDFLAGS}
be copied over OR set <framework>_<component>_WRAPPER_EXTRA_{LIBS,LDFLAGS}.
The situations in which WRAPPER CPPFLAGS can be set by MCA components was
made very small to match the one use case where it makes sense.
