Remove the Altix and Solaris-specific components, since they are untested and we don't think they have a user base at this point.

We no longer have any Altix test machines and Altix is effectively
dead anyway, so remove the Altix-specific timer support.  If there
are any Altix users out there, they'll fall back to the Linux
timers, which should work just as well.

While Solaris isn't officially dead, the last release was 6 years ago,
we have no test infrastructure and no real interest in Solaris.  So
remove the Solaris-specific components.

A prior commit (PR open-mpi#13163) removed the stale Solaris
components as we no longer support that environment.
However, the PR left the Solaris configure references
in the code base.

This PR removes those references. It also removes a
duplicate m4 file (opal_check_os_flavors.m4) that exists
in the OAC configure area. All references to the OPAL
version have been updated to OAC.
