Allow tuning max_dupes for build dependencies (#48948)

Up to now, Spack was allowing all build-tools that
may appear in the DAG to have 2 max_dupes.

This is not needed in practice for most of them,
and adding them out of caution just increases
grounding and concretization time.

This PR makes the value of max_dupes configurable
per package, and sets only a few known packages to
2 max_dupes by default.

In case user needs different values, they can
tune the configuration for their use case.
