Attachments: Add support for --with ucx to rpmbuild

Add support for --with ucx to rpmbuild

Currently even if ucx and ucx-devel packages are installed, configure by default ignores them unless specified via ./configure --with-ucx.
There is no very easy way to provide this configuration option to rpmbuild using current defines, hence added 'with_ucx" option.

Other part of this patch adds requires to slurmd package on pmix and ucx.
This was done to avoid confusion by users expecting srun --mpi=list to correctly transmit system capabilities.
consider slurm build with pmix, but pmix is not installed on compute nodes. In that case a user running srun --mpi=list will get pmix as an option, but it will fail if pmix was not present to wireup on the nodes. The error message is quite confusing in this regard as it tells the user to check --mpi=list for acceptable types.

Last issue is version coherence - without further knowledge of true dependencies, I have opted to require same pmix, ucx versions as were used during build.

Thank you Daniel. These are both included in 19.05rc1 which will be released on Tuesday:

    slurm.spec - allow --with-ucx in rpmbuild.
    
    And require the compute nodes to have an identical installation version
    to avoid issues with mismatched libraries.
