As detailed in https://bugs.python.org/issue33725, starting new
processes with 'fork' on Mac OS is not guaranteed to work in general.
As of Python 3.8 the default process spawning mechanism was changed
to avoid this issue.
Spack depends on the fork-based method to preserve file descriptors
transparently, to preserve global state, and to avoid pickling some
objects. An effort is underway to remove dependence on fork-based
process spawning (see #18205). In the meantime, this allows Spack to
run with Python 3.8 on Mac OS by explicitly choosing to use 'fork'.

Nightly builds with MacOS started failing again
due to an upgrade of the default virtual environment
that now uses Python 3.8
This makes us hit #14102 and every build fails. This
commit should be reverted along with the fix to #14102.

* MacOS build tests
- Run on PR that modify the YAML file of the workflow
- Don't clone Spack, since we are in the Spack repo now
* Try to add opengl to configuration to build jupyter
* fixup

check if failures ares actually a real timeout or an error that
just causes a hang.

Add nightly builds for popular and commonly used packages on
macOS that should improve the onramp user experience if
working well.
