Adds another post install hook that loops over the install prefix, looking for shared libraries type of ELF files, and sets the soname to their own absolute paths.
The idea being, whenever somebody links against those libraries, the linker copies the soname (which is the absolute path to the library) as a "needed" library, so that at runtime the dynamic loader realizes the needed library is a path which should be loaded directly without searching.
As a result:
1. rpaths are not used for the fixed/static list of needed libraries in the dynamic section (only for _actually_ dynamically loaded libraries through `dlopen`), which largely solves the issue that Spack's rpaths are a heuristic (`<prefix>/lib` and `<prefix>/lib64` might not be where libraries really are...)
2. improved startup times (no library search required)

* Ignore top-level module config; add auto-update
In Spack 0.17 we got module sets (modules:[name]:[prop]), and for
backwards compat modules:[prop] was short for modules:default:[prop].
But this makes it awkward to define default config for the "default"
module set.
Since 0.17 is branched off, we can now deprecate top-level module config
(that is, just ignore it with a warning).
This PR does that, and it implements `spack config update modules` to
make upgrading easy (we should have added that to 0.17 already...)
It also removes references to `dotkit` stuff which was already
deprecated in 0.13 and could have been removed in 0.14.
Prefix inspections are the only exception, since the top-level prefix inspections
used for `spack load` and `spack env activate`.

Installing packages with a lot of dependencies does not have an easy way
of judging the current progress (apart from running `spack spec -I pkg`
in another terminal). This change allows Spack to update the terminal's
title with status information, including its current progress as well as
information about the current and total number of packages.

* Make -j flag less exceptional
The -j flag in spack behaves differently from make, ctest, ninja, etc,
because it caps the number of jobs to an arbitrary number 16.
Spack will behave like other tools if `spack install` uses a reasonable
default, and `spack install -j <num>` *overrides* that default.
This will be particularly useful for Spack usage outside of a traditional
HPC context and for HPC centers that encourage users to compile on
login nodes with many cores instead of on compute nodes, which has
become increasingly common as individual nodes have more cores.
This maintains the existing default value of min(num_cpus, 16). However,
as it is right now, Spack does a poor job at determining the number of
cpus on linux, since it doesn't take cgroups into account. This is
particularly problematic when using distributed builds with slurm. This PR
also introduces `spack.util.cpus.cpus_available()` to consolidate
knowledge on determining the number of available cores, and improves
core detection for linux. This should also improve core detection for Docker/
Kubernetes, which also use cgroups.

- [x] add `concretize.lp`, `spack.yaml`, etc. to licensed files
- [x] update all licensed files to say 2013-2021 using
`spack license update-copyright-year`
- [x] appease mypy with some additions to package.py that needed
for oneapi.py

This PR adds a note about segfaults with the Intel compiler when the
install paths are long and the dependencies many.

Add a new entry in `config.yaml`:
config:
shared_linking: 'rpath'
If this variable is set to `rpath` (the default) Spack will set RPATH in ELF binaries. If set to `runpath` it will set RUNPATH.
Details:
* Spack cc wrapper explicitly adds `--disable-new-dtags` when linking
* cc wrapper also strips `--enable-new-dtags` from the compile line
when disabling (and vice versa)
* We specifically do *not* add any dtags flags on macOS, which uses
Mach-O binaries, not ELF, so there's no RUNPATH)

* This updates stage names to use "spack-stage-" as a prefix.
This avoids removing non-Spack directories in "spack clean" as
c141e99 did (in this case so long as they don't contain the
prefix "spack-stage-"), and also addresses a follow-up issue
where Spack stage directories were not removed.
* Spack now does more-stringent checking of expected permissions for
staging directories. For a given stage root that includes a user
component, all directories before the user component that are
created by Spack are expected to match the permissions of their
parent; the user component and all deeper directories are expected
to be accessible to the user (read/write/execute).

Dotkit is being used only at a few sites and has been deprecated on new
machines. This commit removes all the code that provide support for the
generation of dotkit module files.
A new validator named "deprecatedProperties" has been added to the
jsonschema validators. It permits to prompt a warning message or exit
with an error if a property that has been marked as deprecated is
encountered.
* Removed references to dotkit in the docs
* Removed references to dotkit in setup-env-test.sh
* Added a unit test for the 'deprecatedProperties' schema validator

* When cleaning the stage root, only remove directories that appear
to be used for staging Spack packages. Previously Spack was clearing
all directories in the stage root, which could remove content not
related to Spack if the user chose a staging root which contains
files/directories not managed by Spack.
* The documentation is updated with warnings about choosing a stage
directory that is only managed by Spack (although generally the
check added in this PR for "spack clean" should avoid removing
content that was not created by Spack)
* The default stage directory (in config.yaml) is now
$tempdir/$user/spack-stage and the logic is updated to omit the
$user portion of this path if $tempdir already contains a $user
directory.
* When creating stage root assign user read/write permissions to all
directories in the path under $user. Previously Spack was assigning
the permissions of the first existing parent directory

Fixes #11163
The goal of this work is to simplify stage directory structures by eliminating use of symbolic links. This means, among other things, that` $spack/var/spack/stage` will no longer be the core staging directory. Instead, the first accessible `config:build_stage` path will be used.
Spack will no longer automatically append `spack-stage` (or the like) to configured build stage directories so the onus of distinguishing the directory from other work -- so the other work is not automatically removed with a `spack clean` operation -- falls on the user.

* config:build_jobs now controls the number of parallel jobs to spawn during
builds, but cannot ever exceed the number of cores on the machine.
* The default is set to 16 or the number of available cores, whatever
is lowest.
* Updated docs to reflect the changes done to limit parallel builds

- make all Spack paths relative to a `_spack_root` symlink, so that we
can easily relocate the docs build *outside* lib/spack/docs
- set some useful defaults for gettext translation variables in conf.py
- update `relativeinclude` and other references to the spack root in the
RST files to use _spack_root

* Update spec format to simpler syntax, maintain backwards compatibility
* Switch to new spec.format method throughout internals
* update package files for new format strings
* documentation and minor code cleanup. removed nonsensical variant sigils

* Remove /nfs/tmp2 from default configuration
* /nfs/tmp2 is going away from LC... and doesn’t exist for the rest of the world.
* update documentation to remove /nfs/tmp2 as well

- remove the old LGPL license headers from all files in Spack
- add SPDX headers to all files
- core and most packages are (Apache-2.0 OR MIT)
- a very small number of remaining packages are LGPL-2.1-only

If the user sets "ccache: true" in spack's config.yaml, Spack will use an available
ccache executable when compiling c/c++ code. This feature is disabled by default
(i.e. "ccache: false") and the documentation is updated with how to enable
ccache support

(#7692)
- spack.util.lock behaves the same as llnl.util.lock, but Lock._lock and
Lock._unlock do nothing.
- can be disabled with a control variable.
- configuration options can enable/disable locking:
- `locks` option in spack configuration controls whether Spack will use filesystem locks or not.
- `-l` and `-L` command-line options can force-disable or force-enable locking.
- Spack will check for group- and world-writability before disabling
locks, and it will not allow a group- or world-writable instance to
have locks disabled.
- update documentation

* Merged 'purge' command with 'clean'. Deleted 'purge'. fixes #2942
'spack purge' has been merged with 'spack clean'. Documentation has been
updated accordingly. The 'clean' and 'purge' behavior are not mutually
exclusive, and they log brief information to tty while they go.
* Fixed a wrong reference to spack clean in the docs
* Added tests for 'spack clean'. Updated bash completion.
