Jeff Squyres a8f9df9951 Change the API slightly so that it is assumed that each process will
be called with a description of its memory segments to make local.  It
is a small enough API that changing to support a
one-process-does-all-assignment model is simple enough if we ever need
it.

/**
* @file
*
* maffinity (memory affinity) framework component interface
* definitions.
*
* Intent
*
* Simple component to set memory affinity for pages. Note that this
* framework assumes that processor affinity is being used (it doesn't
* make much sense to use memory affinity unless processes are bound
* to specific processors, otherwise the processes may move around and
* the memory may end up being remote).
*
* maffinity components are typically used with shared memory
* operations, but can be used elsewhere as well. The idea is to get
* memory physically located with the process that is going to use it.
* For memory allocated to a processor-bound process, functions such
* as malloc() do this naturally. However, when working with memory
* shared by multiple processes on a NUMA machine, it can be extremely
* advantageous to ensure that pages containing the data structures
* for a given process are physically local to the processor where
* that process is bound.
*
* One process will allocate a large shared memory block and all will
* need to participate to make pages local to specific processors.
*
* There is one main module function
* (opal_maffinity_base_module_set_fn_t) that takes an array of
* segment descriptions within the block. Each process will get a
* different set of segment descriptions (i.e., the segments belonging
* to that process). Components then do whatever is necessary to make
* pages local to their respective processes (i.e., the processors
* where the processes are running).
