Ralph Castain 6d6cebb4a7 Bring over the update to terminate orteds that are generated by a dynamic spawn such as comm_spawn. This introduces the concept of a job "family" - i.e., jobs that have a parent/child relationship. Comm_spawn'ed jobs have a parent (the one that spawned them). We track that relationship throughout the lineage - i.e., if a comm_spawned job in turn calls comm_spawn, then it has a parent (the one that spawned it) and a "root" job (the original job that started things).
Accordingly, there are new APIs to the name service to support the ability to get a job's parent, root, immediate children, and all its descendants. In addition, the terminate_job, terminate_orted, and signal_job APIs for the PLS have been modified to accept attributes that define the extent of their actions. For example, doing a "terminate_job" with an attribute of ORTE_NS_INCLUDE_DESCENDANTS will terminate the given jobid AND all jobs that descended from it.

I have tested this capability on a MacBook under rsh, Odin under SLURM, and LANL's Flash (bproc). It worked successfully on non-MPI jobs (both simple and including a spawn), and MPI jobs (again, both simple and with a spawn).

This commit was SVN r12597.
