[Pkg-openmpi-maintainers] Override disparities in source package openmpi

Dear Archive Maintainers,

we, the Debian OpenMPI Maintainers, changed the package priority of the
OpenMPI packages in our last upload to "extra", according to the Debian
Policy. We think that a message passing implementation doesn't fit
"optional", because it isn't something "that you might reasonably want
to install if you didn't know what it was and don't have specialized
requirements."

Nevertheless, the QA page now shows several override warnings now. We'd
like to have the openmpi package priority lowered to "extra" with your
agreement. Thanks!

Best regards
Manuel
