node_features plugin - Add "mode" argument to node_features_p_node_xlate()
    function to fix some bugs updating a node's features using the node update
    RPC. Without this change it is impossible to clear the active features of
    a node or reset non-KNL node features.

node_features/knl_cray plugin: Substantially streamline and speed up logic
    to load current node state on reconfigure failure or unexpected node boot.
    Completely eliminate capmc calls and just use cnselect to load current
    node mode information.

node_features/knl_cray plugin: drain any node not reported by
    "capmc node_status" on startup or reconfig. Also re-tests
    on failed node restart for job.

node_features/knl_cray plugin: Remove any KNL MCDRAM or NUMA features from
    node's configuration if capmc does NOT report the node as being KNL.
    For example, we don't want a non-KNL node with features="quad,cache".

Add new knl.conf configuration parameter CapmcRetries
Modify capmc_suspend and capmc_resume to retry operations when
  Cray State Manager is down.
Add retry logic to node_features/knl_cray to handle Cray State
  manager being down.

Otherwise they'll truncate when packed into the RPC and end up
as some bizarre value at the controller.

Bug 3098.

Set completed time for pending/running runaway jobs to the max of
(start, eligible, submit) times.

Bug 3075

Avoid using slurm_forward_data because it causes thread spawn that
introduces unwanted delays.

Bug 3102.

Also correct the value of NICE_OFFSET used within the perl API.

Bug 3051.

Otherwise updates would be rejected for running jobs even if there
would be no impact. Most common when the job_submit plugin is overriding
QOS/GRES values on everything; without this change an update to "comment"
or other fields would fail with ESLURM_JOB_NOT_PENDING.

Bug 3117.

Never ever run NHC, even on an edge case that NHC_NO would still launch NHC
after.

Bug 3105.

Switch to list_for_each, and check if access list actually changed
after each update before updating last_prat_update. This prevents
the backfill scheduler from resetting mid-cycle unnecessarily.

Bug 3123.

Add "sbatch_wait_nodes" to SchedulerParameters to control default sbatch
    behaviour with respect to waiting for all allocated nodes to be ready for
    use. Job can override the configuration option using the --wait-all-nodes=#
    option.
bug 3120

Prior logic would treat execute line like this:
$ sbatch --wait-all-nodes -N3 tmp
with "-N3" as being the argument to the "--wait-all-nodes" option.
See bug 3120

Add salloc/sbatch/srun option --use-min-nodes to prefer smaller node counts
    when a range of node counts is specified (e.g. "-N 2-4").
bug 2996

Add salloc/sbatch/srun --priority option of "TOP" to set job priority to
    the highest possible value. This option is only available to Slurm operators
    and administrators.

Make sure no attempt is made to schedule a requeued job until all steps are
    cleaned (Node Health Check completes for all steps on a Cray).
bug 3082

Otherwise limit is checking the node count against the midplane count.

Bug 3049.

Check if node names are contiguous with respect to the node list
assigned to the partition, rather than just monotonically increasing.

capmc_suspend/resume - If a request modify NUMA or MCDRAM state on a set of

Allow a node's PowerUp state flag to be cleared using update_node RPC.

When powering up a node to change it's state (e.g. KNL NUMA or MCDRAM mode)
    then pass to the ResumeProgram the job ID assigned to the nodes in the
    SLURM_JOB_ID environment variable.

Restore ability to manually power down nodes, broken in 15.08.12
in commit b4904661

The patch introduced in commit b4904661 (not powering down dead node) has a bad side effect.  Adding the "(node_ptr->last_idle != 0)" condition prevents from powering down nodes with the following command:

scontrol update nodename=nX state=power_down

because the state update function relies on zeroing the "last_idle" variable when a power_down is requested (see src/slurmctld/node_mgr.c, line 1589).

Reverting this commit should solve the problem...but I let you decide...

Fix race condition that could result in MCDRAM state information coming

  latest boot).

No functional change, just silencing the warning message in this instance.
