This switches the default Make build type to `build_type=Release`.
This offers:
- higher optimization level, including loop vectorization on older GCC
- adds NDEBUG define, which disables assertions, which could cause speedups if assertions are in loops etc
- no `-g` means smaller install size
Downsides are:
- worse backtraces (though this does NOT strip symbols)
- perf reports may be useless
- no function arguments / local variables in debugger (could be of course)
- no file path / line numbers in debugger
The downsides can be mitigated by overriding to `build_type=RelWithDebInfo` in `packages.yaml`,
if needed. The upside is that builds will be MUCH smaller (and faster) with this change.

* Vendor ruamel.yaml v0.17.21
* Add unit test for whitespace regression
* Add an abstraction layer in Spack to wrap ruamel.yaml
All YAML operations are routed through spack.util.spack_yaml
The custom classes have been adapted to the new ruamel.yaml
class hierarchy.
Fixed line annotation issue in "spack config blame"
This ensures that:
a) no externals are added to the tarball metadata file
b) no externals are added to the prefix to prefix map on install, also
for old tarballs that did include externals
c) ensure that the prefix -> prefix map is always string to string, and
doesn't contain None in case for some reason a hash is missing
* libiconv can be provided by libc, so update packages which depend on
libiconv to require the iconv virtual instead
* Many packages need special consideration when locating iconv depending
on whether it is provided by libc (no prefix provided) or the libiconv
package (in that case we want to provide a prefix)
* It was also noticed that when an iconv external was provided, that
there was interference with linking (this should generally be handled
by Spack's compiler wrappers and bears further investigation)
* Like iconv, libintl can be provided by libc or another package, namely
gettext. It is not converted to a provider like libiconv because it
provides additional routines. The logic is similar to that of iconv
but instead of checking the provider, we check whether the gettext
installation includes libintl.
* Provide openmp from rocm-open-extras for roblas test
* Addressing the prechecks/audit/package-audits check
* Correcting style check errors.
* rocm-openmp-extras path veriable restricting for test
* Correcting the env variable to run_tests
* Guard use of OpenMP to make it optional in rocblas test
* Removing unused patch
* Patch to handle file reorg changes for the tests
* Correcting patch file name
* Limiting hipify-clang path to 5.4 and later
* Set hipify-clang path env in CMake
* Disable module generation by default (#35564)
a) It's used by site administrators, so it's niche
b) If it's used by site administrators, they likely need to modify the config anyhow, so the default config only serves as an example to get started
c) it's too arbitrary to enable tcl, but disable lmod
* Remove leftover from old module file schema
* Warn if module file config is detected and generation is disabled
