This PR is in response to a question in the `environments` slack channel (https://spackpm.slack.com/archives/CMHK7MF51/p1729200068557219) about inadequate CLI help/documentation for one specific subcommand.
This PR uses the approach I took for the descriptions and help for `spack test` subcommands. Namely, I use the first line of the relevant docstring as the description, which is shown per subcommand in `spack env -h`, and the entire docstring as the help. I then added, where it seemed appropriate, help. I also tweaked argument docstrings to tighten them up, make consistent with similar arguments elsewhere in the command, and elaborate when it seemed important. (The only subcommand I didn't touch is `loads`.)
For example, before:
```
$ spack env update -h
usage: spack env update [-hy] env
positional arguments:
env name or directory of the environment to activate
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-y, --yes-to-all assume "yes" is the answer to every confirmation request
```
After the changes in this PR:
```
$ spack env update -h
usage: spack env update [-hy] env
update the environment manifest to the latest schema format
update the environment to the latest schema format, which may not be
readable by older versions of spack
a backup copy of the manifest is retained in case there is a need to revert
this operation
positional arguments:
env name or directory of the environment
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-y, --yes-to-all assume "yes" is the answer to every confirmation request
```

Commit aa0825d642 accidentally added a semicolon
to the ANSI escape sequence even if the color code was `None` or unknown, breaking the
bold, uncolored font-face. This PR restores the old behavior.

* Add type hints to all query* methods
* Inline docstrings
* Change defaults from `any` to `None` so they can be type hinted in old Python
* Pre-filter on given hashes instead of iterating over all db specs
* Fix a bug where the `--origin` option of uninstall had no effect
* Fix a bug where query args were not applied when searching by concrete spec

Fixes a change in behavior/bug in
70412612c7, where partial environment
installs would mark the selected spec as explicitly installed, even if
it was not a root of the environment.
The desired behavior is that roots by definition are the to be
explicitly installed specs. The specs on the `spack -e ... install x`
command line are just filters for partial installs, so leave them
implicitly installed if they aren't roots.
