Give packagers a configure CLI option to set the value of the MCA
variable mca_base_component_show_load_errors.
The --disable form of this option is intended for Open MPI packagers
who tend to enable support for many different types of networks and
systems in their packages. For example, consider a packager who
includes support for both the FOO and BAR networks in their Open MPI
package, both of which require support libraries (libFOO.so and
libBAR.so). If an end user only has BAR hardware, they likely only
have libBAR.so available on their systems -- not libFOO.so. Disabling
load errors by default will prevent the user from seeing potentially
confusing warnings about the FOO components failing to load because
libFOO.so is not available on their systems.
Conversely, system administrators tend to build an Open MPI that is
targeted at their specific environment, and contains few (if any)
components that are not needed. In such cases, they might want their
users to be warned that the FOO network components failed to load
(e.g., if libFOO.so was mistakenly unavailable), because Open MPI may
otherwise silently failover to a slower network path for MPI traffic.
