RFC:  Eliminate ompi/class/ompi_[circular_buffer_]fifo.h

WHAT:  Eliminate those two include files.

WHY:  These include files are only used by the sm BTL.  They
are not generally usable.  Further, the sm BTL will soon no
longer use them.  The current FIFOs support only a single sender
each and we want multiple senders to be able to share a common
FIFO.  The current FIFOs also can grow without bound, which is
complicated support that we don't think we need.

WHERE:  Two include files: ompi/class/ompi_[circular_buffer_]fifo.h

WHEN:  "Immediately".  Intended for 1.3.x.

TIMEOUT: February 20, 2009.
