Improve the check done in
opal_common_verbs_check_basicsto actually check if there really are HCAs under the
directory returned by ibv_get_sysfs_path()/class/infiniband.
@jsquyres - your commit to fake out ibverbs causes a melt-down in certain cases for the cray ib verbs simulation stuff and I don't want to have cray users have to specify --with-verbs=no on the config line. I think if you're wanting to fake out ibverbs, I'm equally justified to avoid being faked out by cray ibverbs simulation layer.
Fixes #575
