fpm can't find MPI runner on HPE Cray system #1140

<ERROR> *cmd_run* Model error: cannot find a valid mpi runner on the local host
STOP 1
Expected Behaviour
I expect fpm to find and use srun as the runner. On HPE Cray systems, srun replaces mpirun. A workaround is to create a script named mpirun with the following contents:
#!/bin/bash
srun "$@"
but it's likely that not every user would think of this and it took quite a bit of time to diagnose the problem and realize the solution.
