IntelMPI support

[eero-t]

mpi-operator MPIJob got IntelMPI support already in Summer 2021. Although traning-operator added MPIJob (shortly) after that, it's still missing IntelMPI support.

Related mpi-operator PRs can be seen from this list: https://github.com/kubeflow/mpi-operator/pulls?q=is%3Apr+intel+mpi+is%3Aclosed

PR #1804 adds IntelMPI env var support, but there are also other things that are needed.

IMHO most important ones from the mpi-operator are:

• IntelMPI vs. OpenMPI worker slots format support: Add slots to hostfile mpi-operator#523
• Option for which MPI implementation is in question: add support for using Intel MPI(2019.7) and MVAPICH2 mpi-operator#283

And these few other PRs could also be relevant:

• Connection repeat for robustness: Add support for Intel MPI mpi-operator#389
• Readiness probe when SSH is used: Add readiness probe to Intel MPI jobs mpi-operator#425
• E2E tests robustness: Fix intel MPI E2E test image mpi-operator#417
• Examples: Add base images and make PI samples inherit from it mpi-operator#419

Having (eventually) same API and MPI implementations support for MPIJob as in mpi-operator would help in switching between them & comparing them. I understood there are some differences in how they do things, so this would help in getting some data on whether there's an actual difference in practice.
