Use file paths/urls correctly (#34452)
The main issue that's fixed is that Spack passes paths (as strings) to functions that require urls. That wasn't an issue on unix, since there you can simply concatenate `file://` and `path` and all is good, but on Windows that gives invalid file urls. Also on Unix, Spack would not deal with uri encoding like x%20y for file paths. It also removes Spack's custom url.parse function, which had its own incorrect interpretation of file urls, taking file://x/y to mean the relative path x/y instead of hostname=x and path=/y. Also it automatically interpolated variables, which is surprising for a function that parses URLs. Instead of all sorts of ad-hoc `if windows: fix_broken_file_url` this PR adds two helper functions around Python's own path2url and reverse. Also fixes a bug where some `spack buildcache` commands used `-d` as a flag to mean `--mirror-url` requiring a URL, and others `--directory`, requiring a path. It is now the latter consistently.
