enable env CHPL_FAST_FLAG as alternative to --fast
Merge remote-tracking branch 'upstream/master' into env-for-fast-2
CHPL_FAST_FLAG -> CHPL_FAST
Added a check to Expr::verify()
Two tweaks to fix wide string copy errors exposed by dlmalloc.

Handling of the distinguished value for an empty c_string_copy was not fully implemented
in the remote string routines.  Wide strings should report a length of zero if the string
itself is a NULL.  If the remote string pointer is null, the local one should be, too.

Brief investigation into test/jacobi/waynew/example2 non-deterministic errors.

Adding the notes (though I intend to get to it for regressions week).

Adding an note to the CONTRIBUTORS file for mis-attributed author commits

Due to the author mis-namings that stemmed from the conversion from
SVN/SourceForge to Git/GitHub, this commit flags those contributors
who were mis-named during the conversion process in order to set
the record straight where we give credit to past contributors.

Added a check to Expr::verify()
that all AList elements point to each other via 'prev' and 'next' properly.
Merge pull request #458 from mppf/env-for-fast-2

Enable env CHPL_FAST as alternative to --fast

Such environment-variable triggering of --fast
is useful in some testing situations.
Discovered that the NAS Parallel Benchmarks IS and FT took a minor hit with the
<locale>.numCores to <locale>.maxTaskPar switch on 09/04.  Noting this in the
annotations file.  Also, modify the IS graph so it doesn't display the set up
time, as that hid the change from view (and is really more of an indicator of
how messed up that test is than an indicator of anything useful).
Add suppression for meteor-fast when using Cray CCE compiler and comm==none.
