NET API improvements

protocol), allowing plugins to skip generating a completion.
* Allow for full offload of allgather operations when using one
GPU per node.
NCCL_ALGO/NCCL_PROTO strict enforcement
* Extend NCCL_ALGO/NCCL_PROTO syntax to be able to specify
ALGO/PROTO filters for each collective operation.
* Strictly enforce the ALGO/PROTO filters, no longer fall back
on the ring algorithm when the filtering leaves no option and
error out instead.
Enable CUMEM host allocations
* Use cumem functions for host memory allocation by default.
Improved profiler plugin API
* Avoid dependencies with NCCL includes.
* Add information on whether the buffer is registered or not

* Issue #1495
Various compiler tweaks and fixes
* PR #758
Fix typo in ncclTopoPrintGraph
* Issue #1468
Add scalable init API
* Add new ncclCommInitRankScalable to allow for passing multiple
unique IDs to the init function.
* Spreads the load onto multiple bootstrap roots, allowing for
constant bootstrap time.
* Requires multiple ranks to create a unique ID, and the CPU-side
ID exchange code to call allgather[v] instead of broadcast.
Accelerate init bootstrap operations

available.

Asynchronous graph allocation
* Make calls to cudaMalloc and cudaMemcpy during graph allocation
asynchronous.

(e.g. port down) do not cause an immediate stop.
Set P2P level to PXB on AMD CPUs when using more than 2 GPUs per node
* P2P would cause a significant performance degradation when using
many GPUs, and therefore many interleaved data flows.
* Disable P2P through the CPU when we have 3+ GPUs per node; keep it
enabled when we only have 2 GPUs.
Improve the init logs to report the real NCCL function.
* Make the log report ncclCommInitRank or ncclCommSplit, rather than
the generic ncclCommInitRankFunc.
Add a parameter to set the location of the user configuration file.
* Add NCCL_CONF_FILE environment variable to set where the user's
configuration file resides.

* Improves distribution of work on channels.
Fix crash when NUMA IDs are equal to -1.

needed.
