  1. Check the runtime version of PMIx

    It has been reported (and confirmed) that building against
    one version of PMIx and then running with another version
    will cause PRRTE to segfault. This isn't a universal rule.
    For example, one can switch v5.0 and master without a
    problem. However, switching v5.0 and v4.2 is a definite
    segfault.
    
    The root cause of the problem is a change in the layout
    of the base pmix_object_t definition. This renders all
    PMIx objects binary incompatible when crossing between
    the v5 and v4 (and below) series.
    
    Changing the v5 definition back to match v4 is an
    overly complex task. The changes were required to
    accommodate the new shared memory support that
    was introduced in v5.
    
    So instead, we check the runtime version of PMIx against
    the build version. If the runtime version is incompatible
    with the build version, then we print an explanatory
    error message and error out.
