[openib-general] libsdp: RFC changing libsdp.conf location

[Eitan Zahavi]

Hi Roland, Scott, Nimrod, MST,

Thanks for your feedbacks on the issue over the last week.
What I plan to do:
1. Move the default location to /etc/libsdp.conf
2. Mark the file with %config in so it is not overwritten by the RPM install
3. Change the "make install" to not overwrite the file but to create a 
file named /etc/libsdp.conf.example if a file exists
