mark front end node down.

Cray - For srun wrapper when creating a job allocation, set the default job
name to the executable file's name. Ignore leading directory names in the path.

Add new job state reason of "FrontEndDown" which applies only to Cray and

In cray/srun wrapper, only include aprun "-q" option when srun "--quiet"

Patch from Aleksej Saushev.

is a convenience function in BSD and glibc that internally calls
the equivalent of

    int masterfd = open("/dev/ptmx", flags);
    grantpt (masterfd);
    unlockpt (masterfd);
    int slavefd = open (slave, O_RDRW|O_NOCTTY);

(in psuedocode)

On Linux, with some combinations of glibc/kernel (in this
case glibc-2.14/Linux-3.1), the equivalent of grantpt(3) was failing
in slurmstepd with EPERM, because the allocated pty was getting
root ownership instead of the user running the slurm job.

From the POSIX description of grantpt:

 "The grantpt() function shall change the mode and ownership of the
  slave pseudo-terminal device... The user ID of the slave shall
  be set to the real UID of the calling process..."

 http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007904875/functions/grantpt.html

This means that for POSIX-compliance, the real user id of slurmstepd
must be the user executing the SLURM job at the time openpty(3) is
called. Unfortunately, the real user id of slurmstepd at this
point is still root, and only the effective uid is set to the user.

This patch is a work-around that uses the (non-portable) setresuid(2)
system call to reset the real and effective uids of the slurmstepd
process to the job user, but keep the saved uid of root. Then after
the openpty(3) call, the previous credentials are reestablished
using the same call.

Fix for srun allocating running within existing allocation with --exclude
option and --nnodes count small enough to remove more nodes.

    > salloc -N 8
    salloc: Granted job allocation 1000008
    > srun -N 2 -n 2 --exclude=tux3 hostname
    srun: error: Unable to create job step: Requested node configuration is not available
