* Add two no-op jobs named "all-prechecks" and "all"
These are a suggestion from @tgamblin, they are stable named markers we
can use from gitlab and possibly for required checks to make CI more
resilient to refactors changing the names of specific checks.
* Enable parallel testing using xdist for unit testing in CI
* Normalize tmp paths to deal with macos
* add -u flag compatibility to spack python
As of now, it is accepted and ignored. The usage with xdist, where it
is invoked specifically by `python -u spack python` which is then passed
`-u` by xdist is the entire reason for doing this. It should never be
used without explicitly passing -u to the executing python interpreter.
* use spack python in xdist to support python 2
When running on python2, spack has many import cycles unless started
through main. To allow that, this uses `spack python` as the
interpreter, leveraging the `-u` support so xdist doesn't error out when
it unconditionally requests unbuffered binary IO.
* Use shutil.move to account for tmpdir being in a separate filesystem sometimes
