If you don't format `spack.yaml` correctly, `spack config edit` still fails and
you have to edit your `spack.yaml` manually.
- [x] Add some code to `_main()` to defer `ConfigFormatError` when loading the
environment, until we know what command is being run.
- [x] Make `spack config edit` use `SPACK_ENV` instead of the config scope
object to find `spack.yaml`, so it can work even if the environment is bad.

`spack config get <section>` was erroneously returning just the `spack.yaml`
for the environment.
It should return the combined configuration for that section (including
anything from `spack.yaml`), even in an environment.
- [x] reorder conditions in `cmd/config.py` to fix
`spack --debug config edit` was not working properly -- it would not do show a
stack trace for configuration errors.
- [x] Rework `_main()` and add some notes for maintainers on where things need
to go for configuration to work properly.
- [x] Move config setup to *after* command-line parsing is done.

`main()` has grown, and in some cases code that can generate errors has gotten
outside the top-level try/catch in there. This means that simple errors like
config issues give you large stack traces, which shouldn't happen without
`--debug`.
- [x] Split `main()` into `main()` for the top-level error handling and
`_main()` with all logic.
There were some loose ends left in ##26735 that cause errors when
using `SPACK_DISABLE_LOCAL_CONFIG`.
- [x] Fix hard-coded `~/.spack` references in `install_test.py` and `monitor.py`
Also, if `SPACK_DISABLE_LOCAL_CONFIG` is used, there is the issue that
`$user_config_path`, when used in configuration files, makes no sense,
because there is no user config scope.
Since we already have `$user_cache_path` in configuration files, and since there
really shouldn't be *any* data stored in a configuration scope (which is what
you'd configure in `config.yaml`/`bootstrap.yaml`/etc., this just removes
`$user_config_path`.
There will *always* be a `$user_cache_path`, as Spack needs to write files, but
we shouldn't rely on the existence of a particular configuration scope in the
Spack code, as scopes are configurable, both in number and location.
- [x] Remove `$user_config_path` substitution.
- [x] Fix reference to `$user_config_path` in `etc/spack/deaults/bootstrap.yaml`
to refer to `$user_cache_path`, which is where it was intended to be.
* Deactivate previous env before activating new one
Currently on develop you can run `spack env activate` multiple times to switch
between environments, but they leave traces, even though Spack only supports
one active environment at a time.
Currently:
```console
$ spack env create a
$ spack env create b
$ spack env activate -p a
[a] $ spack env activate -p b
[b] [a] $ spack env activate -p b
[a] [b] [a] $ spack env activate -p a
[a] [b] [c] $ echo $MANPATH | tr ":" "\n"
/path/to/environments/a/.spack-env/view/share/man
/path/to/environments/a/.spack-env/view/man
/path/to/environments/b/.spack-env/view/share/man
/path/to/environments/b/.spack-env/view/man
```
This PR fixes that:
```console
$ spack env activate -p a
[a] $ spack env activate -p b
[b] $ spack env activate -p a
[a] $ echo $MANPATH | tr ":" "\n"
/path/to/environments/a/.spack-env/view/share/man
/path/to/environments/a/.spack-env/view/man
```
Currently spack is a bit of a bad actor as a zsh plugin, and it was my
fault. The autoload and compinit should really be handled by the user,
as was made abundantly clear when I found spack was doing completion
initialization for *all* of my plugins due to a deferred setup that was
getting messed up by it.
Making this conditional took spack load time from 1.5 seconds (with
module loading disabled) to 0.029 seconds. I can actually afford to load
spack by default with this change in.
Hopefully someday we'll do proper zsh completion support, but for now
this helps a lot.
* use zsh hist expansion in place of dirname
* only run (bash)compinit if compdef/complete missing
* add zsh compiled files to .gitignore
* move changes to .in file, because spack
* Drastically improve YamlFilesystemView file removal via batching
The `remove_file` routine has to check if the file is owned by multiple packages, so it doesn't
remove necessary files. This is done by the `get_all_specs` routine, which walks the entire
package tree. With large numbers of packages on shared file systems, this can take seconds
per file tree traversal, which adds up extremely quickly. For example, a single deactivate
of a largish python package in our software stack on GPFS took approximately 40 minutes.
This patch simply replaces `remove_file` with a batch `remove_files` routine. This routine
removes a list of files rather than a single file, requiring only one traversal per batch. In
practice this means a package can be removed in seconds time, rather than potentially hours,
essentially a ~100x speedup (ignoring initial deactivation logic, which takes about 3 minutes
in our test setup).
* Fix sbang hook for non-writable files
PR #26793 seems to have broken the sbang hook for files with missing
write permissions. Installing perl now breaks with the following error:
```
==> [2021-10-28-12:09:26.832759] Error: PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '$SPACK/opt/spack/linux-fedora34-zen2/gcc-11.2.1/perl-5.34.0-afuweplnhphcojcowsc2mb5ngncmczk4/bin/cpanm'
```
Temporarily add write permissions to the original file so it can be
overwritten with the patched one.
And test that file permissions are preserved in sbang even for non-writable files

When relocating a binary distribution, Spack only checks files to see
if they are a link that needs to be relocated. Directories can be
such links as well, however, and need to undergo the same checks
and potential relocation.
