I would like to be able to export (and save and then load programatically)
spack blame metadata, so this commit adds a spack blame --json argument,
along with developer docs for it

This work will come in two phases. The first here is to allow saving of a local result
with spack monitor, and the second will add a spack monitor command so the user can
do spack monitor upload.

Currently if one package does `depends_on('pkg default_library=shared')`
and another does `depends_on('pkg default_library=both')`, you'd get a
concretization error.
With this PR one package can do `depends_on('pkg default_library=shared')`
and another depends_on('default_library=static'), and it would concretize to
`pkg default_library=shared,static`

This adds RHEL8's `/usr/libexec/platform-python` to Spack's list of preferred
pythons. It will only be used if no other `python` is available in the `PATH`.
We have been testing with this python for a while now, and it seems to do all
that we need. If Spack one day isn't able to work with it, we'll take it out,
but for now it is useful to allow Spack to be used on RHEL8 without a dedicated
`python` installation.
Spack doesn't require users to manually index their repos; it reindexes the indexes automatically when things change. To determine when to do this, it has to `stat()` all package files in each repository to make sure that indexes up to date with packages. We currently index virtual providers, patches by sha256, and tags on packages.
When this was originally implemented, we ran the checker all the time, at startup, but that was slow (see #7587). But we didn't go far enough -- it still consults the checker and does all the stat operations just to see if a package exists (`Repo.exists()`). That might've been a wash in 2018, but as the number of packages has grown, it's gotten slower -- checking 5k packages is expensive and users see this for small operations. It's a win now to make `Repo.exists()` check files directly.
**Fix:**
This PR does a number of things to speed up `spack load`, `spack info`, and other commands:
- [x] Make `Repo.exists()` check files directly again with `os.path.exists()` (this is the big one)
- [x] Refactor `Spec.satisfies()` so that a checking for virtual packages only happens if needed
(avoids some calls to exists())
- [x] Avoid calling `Repo.exists(spec)` in `Repo.get()`. `Repo.get()` will ultimately try to load
a `package.py` file anyway; we can let the failure to load it indicate that the package doesn't
exist, and avoid another call to exists().
- [x] Fix up some comments in spec parsing
- [x] Call `UnknownPackageError` more consistently in `repo.py`
