Environment variable to point to desiconda "aux" directory. #6

Currently the environment variable DESICONDA points to the anaconda install directory, e.g., /global/common/cori/contrib/desi/desiconda/20170613-1.1.4-spectro/code/desiconda/20170613-1.1.4-spectro_conda. However, I can't find a similar variable that points to the equivalent spectro_aux directory. This would be very useful for people needing to compile code against, say the cfitsio library.

Ok, will add this when I'm updating things next, probably tomorrow.

I added an environment variable, but note that this is hardly ever necessary. The appropriate directories containing compiled code are already added to PATH, CPATH, LIBRARY_PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, PYTHONPATH, and PKG_CONFIG_PATH. So libraries and headers should be automatically found during compilation.
