#  SYNOPSIS
#  DiscoverPath Path2Start node
#  FUNCTION
#  Traverses a path between two fabric nodes, reading info regarding the
#  nodes passed, and writing this data into various databases.
#  This procedure is used whenever a tool should traverse some path:
#  ibdiagpath, ibcfg, ibping,ibmad.
#  The path is defined by its two end points: the source node and the
#  destination node. The path between the endpoints will be a direct route
#  - in case of by-direct-path-addressing - or lid-route in case of by-name
#  or by-lid addressing.
#  INPUTS
#  $Path2Start is a direct route to the source node. In case of lid routing
#  it will be a part of the lid route to the destination node.
#  $node points to the destination is specified - either by a Direct route
#  (by-direct-path-addressing), or by LID (by-lid or by-name addressing).
#  OUTPUT
#  A direct route starting at the start (local or source) node
#       ending at the end node (destination or source )
#  DATAMODEL
#  Similarly to DiscoverFabric, the prod uses and updates these arrays
#  G(data:NodeInfo.<NodeGuid>)
#  G(data:list.direct.path)
#  Additionally, the following database is maintained:
#  G(DrPath2LID,<DirectPath>):
#     the LID of the entry port at the end of <DirectPath>
#  Also used: G(argv:* ) (= the parsed command line arguments) is used to
#  specify the addressing mode; and the pointer to the merged fabric
#  G(IBfabric:merged) (= the ibdm merging of topo file and .lst file)
