* Allow compiler wrapper to modify environment
This adds the ability to set environment variables in the compiler
wrappers. These are specified as part of the compilers.yaml config.
The user may also specify RPATHs in compilers.yaml that should be
added.
* Minor doc tweak

This list was not formatted correctly on [the ReadTheDocs site](http://software.llnl.gov/spack/basic_usage.html#specs-dependencies).
I'm not a .rst expert, but I think that it was improperly indented.
The example includes an `arch=...` string but *arch* is not listed in the valid compiler flag specifiers or architecture specifiers. Should it be, or is it considered an "optional variant specifier?
Updating how to use compilers.yaml on Cray as well as setting up
external packages. Also includes what needs to be set up for usage on
Cray and explains what needs to be done to get Spack properly working.
Also explain the architecture spec and what it does.
