Provide the av_attr.count hint (number of addresses that will be
inserted into the address vector through the life of the process)
at initialization of the address vector. It's ok to be a bit
wrong, but some endpoints (RxR) can benefit by not going through
the slow growth realloc churn.

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.

-> Added new targets in Makefile.am to call a new build script
generate-opt-funcs.pl to generate specialized functions for
each *.pm file.
-> Added new perl module *.pm files for send,isend,irecv,iprobe,improbe
which are loaded by generate-opt-funcs.pl to create new source files
that correspond to the name of the .pm file to be used as part of
MTL OFI.
-> Added mtl_ofi_opt.pm.template and updated README with details on the
specialization features and how to add additional specialization
support.
-> Added new opt_common/mtl_ofi_opt_common.pm containing common
functions for generating the specialized functions used by
all other *.pm modules.
-> Added new mtl_ofi.h which includes the definitions for the
function symbol table for storing the specialized functions along
with the definitions for the initialization functions for the
corresponding function pointers.
-> Based off the OFI provider capabilities the specialized function
pointers are assigned at mtl_ofi_component_init to the corresponding
MTL OFI function.
-> mca_mtl_ofi_module_t has been updated with the symbol table
struct which is assigned at component init.

For cases when the number of local processes is greater than the number of
available contexts, the SEP initialization phase would calculate the number of
contexts to provision for each rank to be 0 and would eventually crash.
Fix the issue here by using regular endpoints in the event the number of local
processes is more than available contexts. This fixes issue #6182.

Commit 109d0569ff introduced a crash when an error occurred

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.

When the provider does not support FI_REMOTE_CQ_DATA, the OFI tag does not have
sizeof(int) bits for the rank. Therefore, unexpected behavior will occur when
this limit is crossed.
Check the max allowed number of ranks during add_procs() and return if there is
danger of exceeding this threshold.

The Open MPI code base assumed that asprintf always behaved like
the FreeBSD variant, where ptr is set to NULL on error. However,
the C standard (and Linux) only guarantee that the return code will
be -1 on error and leave ptr undefined. Rather than fix all the
usage in the code, we use opal_asprintf() wrapper instead, which
guarantees the BSD-like behavior of ptr always being set to NULL.
In addition to being correct, this will fix many, many warnings
in the Open MPI code base.

Change default provider selection logic for the OFI MTL. The
old logic was whitelist-only, so any new HPC NIC provider would
have to ask users to do extra work or wait for an OMPI release
to be whitelisted. The reason for the logic was to avoid
selecting a "generic" provider like sockets or shm that would
frequently have worse performance than the optimized BTL options
Open MPI supports.
With the change, we blacklist the (small, relatively static) list
of providers that duplicate internal capabilities. Users can use
one of thse blacklisted providers in two ways: first, they can
explicitly request the provider in the include list (which will
override the default exclude list) and second, the can set a new
empty exclude list.
Since most HPC networks require special libraries and therefore
an explicit build of libfabric, it is highly unlikely that this
change will cause users to use libfabric when they didn't want to
do so. It does, however, solve the whitelisting problem.

When an application is not using multiple threads to call into MPI, we can
safely ask for FI_THREAD_DOMAIN setting from the provider as it should
translate to the least amount of locking in provider.
Conversely, for applications using THREAD_MULTIPLE, explicitly ask for
FI_THREAD_SAFE to prevent race conditions.

Since progress entries array is globally allocated, it is susceptible
to race conditions when using multi-threaded applications. Allocating it
on the stack resolves any potential races as it is thread local by default.

-Updated the design for sync send MPI calls to use 2 protocol bits for
denoting "sync_send" or "sync_send_ack".
-"Sync_send" is added to the send tag only and is masked out in receives
such that it can be read by the original Recv posted in the send/recv
operation.
-"Sync_send_ack" is sent from the recv callback to the send side. This 0
byte send does not generate a completion entry and instead sends the
message and immediately completes the opal completion in the recv.
-Tag formats ofi_tag_1 and ofi_tag_2 have been updated to include 2
more tag bits per format type due to the reduced protocal bits required
by OMPI.

The value of ret is negative (e.g., -61), but it is displayed in the

mtl_ofi_provider_include (resp. mtl_ofi_provider_exclude) can be used
to specify which provider(s) the OFI MTL can select (resp. ignore).
e.g. --mca mtl_ofi_provider_include "psm,sockets"
By default, mtl_ofi_provider_exclude is set to "sockets,mxm".
This deprecates the old MCA var named "mtl_ofi_provider".
Some OFI providers such as "sockets" are used for debugging
purposes mostly. For these providers, other components usually
offer better performance -- e.g. for sockets, the BTL/TCP would
be a better choice.
Thus, we chose to ignore some providers unless explicitly asked
by the user on the command line:
e.g. --mca mtl_ofi_provider sockets
