Update documentation for use on Cray

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.

Architecture specifiers are part of specs but are not yet

The architecture specifier looks identical to a variant specifier for a The architecture specifier looks identical to a variant specifier for a
non-boolean variant. The architecture can be specified only using the non-boolean variant. The architecture can be specified by using the reserved
reserved name ``arch`` (``arch=bgq_os``). words ``target`` and/or ``os`` (``target=x86-64 os=debian7``).
If you are on a Cray system, you can specify which target processor to
build with. For example, if you want to build against a compute node processor
with the compute node operating system, you would specify
``target=haswell os=CNL10``. Spack will then load the appropriate module for
the target. Additionally, Spack can also intepret the following values:
``be, backend, fe, frontend``. Backend is used for specifying the compute-node
processor and operating sytem, and frontend is used for login nodes.
If you decide to leave this field empty, Spack will use the
default architecture (compute nodes). The architecture spec is displayed as a
triplet of platform-target-operating_system. (``arch=linux-x86_64-debian7``)

Spack on Cray
-----------------------------
Spack is able to detect compilers through the module avail command. Once it
detects the compiler it writes the appropriate PrgEnv and compiler module
name to compilers.yaml and sets the paths to each compiler with Cray\'s
compiler wrapper names ie (cc, CC, ftn). During build time, Spack will
load the correct PrgEnv and compiler module and will call either cc, CC
or ftn. If you want to use default compilers for each PrgEnv and also be able
to link to cray external modules, you will need to set up a packages.yaml

For Cray users, you can specify the default compiler that Spack will
concretize too. If you want to use the Cray defaults, then set them
under all: in packages.yaml. You can also specify concretization preferences
