add easyconfigs for PerfExpert, ROSE, HPCToolkit + deps

[boegel]

I've deliberately used a dummy toolchain here, to obtain a PerfExpert build that works with other toolchains too...

This is not airtight though, mostly because of the huge list of dependencies. If PerfExpert is to be used with a particular application that has a dependency in common with PerfExpert, PerfExpert will need to be built with the same compiler toolchain to make them compatible.

This might be troublesome, since e.g. ROSE requires a GCC 4.4 or older 4.x (so I should probably use a GCC-4.4 module as build dependency for ROSE to make sure that build works).

Why not the latest version?

[boegel]

It's a requirement of ROSE, which is very picky about versions of dependencies.

[wpoely86]

Looks good

[boegel]

we're relying on the system compiler too much here... ROSE requires GCC 4.4.x, so we need to make sure that's provided (e.g. via a build dependency)

we don't want to step down from a dummy toolchain though, to retain the freedom of using PerfExpert with applications built with any compiler toolchain (building PerfExpert + all deps with e.g. ictce isn't a viable option)

[wpoely86]

@boegel automake needs to be added as a build dep.

[wpoely86]

@boegel hwloc-info is also needed as a build dep (I think). But the version must be 1.5* (as far as I can tell).

[boegel]

@wpoely86: build deps for what?

[wpoely86]

@boegel a, forgot that 😉 It's for PerfExpert itself.

Also, to build boost I need: easybuilders/easybuild-easyblocks#412
