Description

Recent MPI standards provide in Chapter 14 - 14.2. FILE MANIPULATION standardized options to describe file striping, e.g., on Lustre.

ROMIO seems to support this well and also OpenMPI's OMPIO works well with those in 5.0+: https://github.com/open-mpi/ompi/issues/10132

We should consider exposing these options and setting reasonable defaults :)

Older keys in T3PIO for ROMIO only: https://github.com/TACC/t3pio/blob/0ea823059607bd17c0faf0dd80c5a3979bf4ba69/libt3pio/set_info.c#L160-L173
