Nathan Hjelm d8df9d414d osc/rdma: add true RDMA one-sided component
This commit adds support for performing one-sided operations over
supported hardware (currently Infiniband and Cray Gemini/Aries). This
component is still undergoing active development.

Current features:

 - Use network atomic operations (fadd, cswap) for implementing
   locking and PSCW synchronization.

 - Aggregate small contiguous puts.

 - Reduced memory footprint by storing window data (pointer, keys,
   etc) at the lowest rank on each node. The data is fetched as each
   process needs to communicate with a new peer. This is a trade-off
   between the performance of the first operation on a peer and the
   memory utilization of a window.

TODO:

 - Add support for the accumulate_ops info key. If it is known that
   the same op or same op/no op is used it may be possible to use
   hardware atomics for fetch-and-op and compare-and-swap.
