cmd: add spack mark command (#16662)

This adds a new `mark` command that can be used to mark packages as either
explicitly or implicitly installed. Apart from fixing the package
database after installing a dependency manually, it can be used to
implement upgrade workflows as outlined in #13385.

The following commands demonstrate how the `mark` and `gc` commands can be
used to only keep the current version of a package installed:
```console
$ spack install pkgA
$ spack install pkgB
$ git pull # Imagine new versions for pkgA and/or pkgB are introduced
$ spack mark -i -a
$ spack install pkgA
$ spack install pkgB
$ spack gc
```

If there is no new version for a package, `install` will simply mark it as
explicitly installed and `gc` will not remove it.
