Some blueprint algorithms use MPI tags to help indicate intent of a message and they may use large numbers for the tags. It turns out that some MPI distributions do not like large tag values. This PR changes a communication helper class in relay so it passes tags through a safe_tag() function that clamps tags at MPI_TAG_UB so they work with MPI rather than having MPI abort.
