gflags is needed to compile rocksDB but not to link with it

Setting the properly the JMALLOC_LIBRARIES variable into the find module
made possible to avoid the conditonal inclusion of the library

The creation was performed through a simple rocksDB PUT operation.

Multiple creation attempts on the same file would override the
previously inserted metadata, in particular the file size.

The creation is now handled with a new MergeOperand.
Now a creation attampt on an already existing file will be converted in
a NOP.

The new MergeOperand base class can be subclassed in order to implement
new merge-operands with their specific parameters and semantics.

The UpdateSizeOperand has been renamed IncreaseSizeOperand.

The operand was using three parameters size,offset and append_flag.

Since we only need the (size + offset) sum in order to apply the
operand, the offset field has been removed.

In order to make the file-size-update operation atomic it is necessary
to make the following action atomic:

 - READ old size value from rocksDB
 - COMPUTE new size based on the write operation
 - WRITE back the new value rocksDB

We use rocksDB merge operation [1] in order to implement the atomic update.

with the current storage back-end, chunks of a file are stored in
several files in a folder on a real kernel-space filesystem.

Removing a file means that we need to remove the entire directory and
all its sub-files (rm -r).
This operation is not atomic and it can raise errors if performed
concurrently..

This commit handles properly this kind of errors.

We set them just to be sure that even in older/newer version of Cmake
they are set correctly

Problem: If one of the donwload task fails the script do not stop and
the other task continue to donwload sources.

Solution: If one of the task fails, print an informative error message
and send a signal to the parent process that kills all the spawned tasks
and exits with error code.

the MPI::MPI_CXX imported target only works for CMake > 3.9

In the case we are using a prior version we need to set include paths
and link libraries manually.

Also, startup and shutdown scripts now have a new argument
to decide on where the created pssh hostfile is stored.
