Since #16132, we've consolidated the setting of FORCE_UNSAFE_CONFIGURE to
`autotools.py`, so we don't need to use it in packages like `coreutils`,
in our commands, or in our container recipes.

- [x] Remove FORCE_UNSAFE_CONFIGURE from container recipes
- [x] Remove FORCE_UNSAFE_CONFIGURE from `spack ci` command

This commit sets the `FORCE_UNSAFE_CONFIGURE` environment variable to 1 in autotools builds.
We see a lot of builds popping up and complaining about `FORCE_UNSAFE_CONFIGURE`. This behavior is not actually part of `autoconf` per se. It comes from this patch to `mknod.m4`, which is used by a lot of autoconf builds:
* https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2010-07/msg00282.html
Which originated from this problem that someone had on AIX:
* https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2010-07/msg00279.html
The gist of the problem seems to be that they want to check whether `mknod` can do something as root, but instead of checking whether they're running as root and using `su` or something to test this, they just made it harder to run `configure` as root.
This seems very ad hoc and this is one of many checks that are run as root in `configure`. Many of them run before this check, so it's not clear that the `FORCE_UNSAFE_CONFIGURE` thing is even preventing bad things from happening.
So:
1. This only happens in `autotools` builds, so we should go ahead and put it into `autotools.py` instead of in the global build environment, and
2. The variable does too little and provides a false sense of security in the first place, so we'll just disable it and avoid the nuisance. If we really feel strongly about this we can put some warnings in Spack about running as root, but at the top level, not in the middle of an already running script like `configure`.
* Throw an error at spack install invocation instead of most of the way through the build process when cuda_arch is unspecified.
* Clean-up of CMake booleans. No actual change.
* Use CMake variables for hwloc and libelf installation directories and avoid injecting extra flags into CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS
* Conflict should only exist for +cuda variant.
