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.

new automake requires subdirs-object directive, to resolve this:

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.

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).
