A different version of APCXI network performance counter module that relies on reading the counters directly from the SYS file system.
Thus, the dependency on the PAPI can be removed for this version of the library.

APSS: correcting the macro names
The node name format for OLCF Crusher is different from ALCF Polaris
Only one slot in a chassis was populated and the topology spread with 10 groups
on Polaris, where as Crusher nodes are populated in just 2 groups.
Hence, the slots in the chassis are populated on Crusher.
This necessitated change in the node coordinates.
The node names on Crusher use a custom notation, hence a mapping
from the custom node names to HPE specific node names is required.
HPE specific code names can be used to decipher the topology details.
Rename the HPE slingshot Cassini nic performance counter module as
apcxi.
…le system reads

The cassini nic performance counter module reads the nic performance
counter module by reading from the sys file system
First, the number of available nics on the compute node are determined by
reading the number of directories in /sys/class/cxi/
The topology is discovered using the xnodename node name format on the HPE
EX systems
Only one rank/process per compute node is used to read and report the nic
performance counters
Each monitoring rank reads the counters predefined and configurable list of
counters in apcxi/darshan-apcxi-log-format.h file.
The counters from each of the available nics are read and reported.
