config: add support for setting the wrapper C compiler

This PR adds a new configure option: --with-wrapper-cc.
This option allows the user to set the compiler that will
be invoked by mpicc, shmemcc, etc. This allows the user
to build Open MPI with one compiler (a C standards compliant
compiler like clang or gcc) and have the wrapper use
another compiler (icc for example). This allows building
Open MPI with the best available compiler while still
supporting compiling Open MPI for a specific compiler
suite.
