* MPI support, first cut

* fix warnings, update README

* fixes

* wrap includes

* PR comments

* Update CMakeLists.txt

* Add GH workflow, fix test

* Add info to README

* mpi : trying to move more MPI stuff into ggml-mpi (WIP) (#2099)

* mpi : add names for layer inputs + prep ggml_mpi_graph_compute()

* mpi : move all MPI logic into ggml-mpi

Not tested yet

* mpi : various fixes - communication now works but results are wrong

* mpi : fix output tensor after MPI compute (still not working)

* mpi : fix inference

* mpi : minor

* Add OpenMPI to GH action

* [mpi] continue-on-error: true

* mpi : fix after master merge

* [mpi] Link MPI C++ libraries to fix OpenMPI
