Upstreams: don't write metadata directory to upstream DB (#15526)
When trying to use an upstream Spack repository, as of f2aca86 Spack was attempting to write to the upstream DB based on a new metadata directory added in that commit. Upstream DBs are read-only, so this should not occur. This adds a check to prevent Spack from writing to the upstream DB
