Add hooks for supporting dynamic allocation and deallocation to support application-driven requests and fault recovery operations.
This commit was SVN r27879.
We ran into a case where the OMPI SVN trunk grew a new acceptable MCA
parameter value, but this new value was not accepted on the v1.6
branch (hwloc_base_mem_bind_failure_action -- on the trunk it accepts
the value "silent", but on the older v1.6 branch, it doesn't). If you
set "hwloc_base_mem_bind_failure_action=silent" in the default MCA
params file and then accidentally ran with the v1.6 branch, every OMPI
executable (including ompi_info) just failed because hwloc_base_open()
would say "hey, 'silent' is not a valid value for
hwloc_base_mem_bind_failure_action!". Kaboom.
The only problem is that it didn't give you any indication of where
this value was being set. Quite maddening, from a user perspective.
So we changed the ompi_info handles this case. If any framework open
function return OMPI_ERR_BAD_PARAM (either because its base MCA params
got a bad value or because one of its component register/open
functions return OMPI_ERR_BAD_PARAM), ompi_info will stop, print out
a warning that it received and error, and then dump out the parameters
that it has received so far in the framework that had a problem.
At a minimum, this will show the user the MCA param that had an error
(it's usually the last one), and ''where it was set from'' (so that
they can go fix it).
We updated ompi_info to check for O???_ERR_BAD_PARAM from each from
the framework opens. Also updated the doxygen docs in mca.h for this
O???_BAD_PARAM behavior. And we noticed that mca.h had MCA_SUCCESS
and MCA_ERR_??? codes. Why? I think we used them in exactly one
place in the code base (mca_base_components_open.c). So we deleted
those and just used the normal OPAL_* codes instead.
While we were doing this, we also cleaned up a little memory
management during ompi_info/orte-info/opal-info finalization.
Valgrind still reports a truckload of memory still in use at ompi_info
termination, but they mostly look to be components not freeing
memory/resources properly (and outside the scope of this fix).

The following Trac tickets were found above:
Ticket 3275 --> https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/ticket/3275
So (finally) consolidate these two fields into one "slots" field. Add a field in orte_job_t to indicate when all the procs for a job will be launched together, so that staged operations can know when MPI operations are allowed.
This commit was SVN r27239.
For those nodes (and *only* those nodes) where the user does *not* specify a slot count, we will set the number of slots according to their direction: either to the number of cores, numas, sockets, or hwthreads. Otherwise, the slot count is set to 1.
Note that the default behavior remains unchanged: in the absence of any value for #slots, and in the absence of any directive to set #slots, we will set #slots=1.

Remove some stale configure.m4's we no longer need.
Optimize the nidmaps a bit by only sending info that has changed each time, instead of sending a complete copy of everything. Makes no difference for the typical MPI job - only impacts things like staged execution where we are sending multiple (possibly many) launch messages.
This commit was SVN r27165.
"num_app_ctx" - the number of app_contexts in the job
"first_rank" - the MPI rank of the first process in each app_context
"np" - the number of procs in each app_context
Still need clarification on the MPI_Init portion of the ticket. Specifically, does the ticket call for returning an error is someone calls MPI_Init more than once in a program? We set a flag to tell us that we have been initialized, but currently never check it.

Update all the orte ess components to remove their associated APIs for retrieving proc data. Update the grpcomm API to reflect transfer of set/get modex info to the db framework.
Note that this doesn't recreate the old GPR. This is strictly a local db storage that may (at some point) obtain any missing data from the local daemon as part of an async methodology. The framework allows us to experiment with such methods without perturbing the default one.

Restore enable-static-ports option by default - the Cray will have to disable it to get around their library issues, but that's just a warning problem as opposed to blocking the build.
