This PR adds a sub-command to `spack env` (`track`) which allows users to add/link
anonymous environments into their installation as named environments. This allows
users to more easily track their installed packages and the environments they're
dependencies of. For example, with the addition of #41731 it's now easier to remove
all packages not required by any environments with,
```
spack gc -bE
```
#### Usage
```
spack env track /path/to/env
==> Linked environment in /path/to/env
==> You can activate this environment with:
==> spack env activate env
```
By default `track /path/to/env` will use the last directory in the path as the name of
the environment. However users may customize the name of the linked environment
with `-n | --name`. Shown below.
```
spack env track /path/to/env --name foo
==> Tracking environment in /path/to/env
==> You can activate this environment with:
==> spack env activate foo
```
When removing a linked environment, Spack will remove the link to the environment
but will keep the structure of the environment within the directory. This will allow
users to remove a linked environment from their installation without deleting it from
a shared repository.
There is a `spack env untrack` command that can be used to *only* untrack a tracked
environment -- it will fail if it is used on a managed environment. Users can also use
`spack env remove` to untrack an environment.
This allows users to continue to share environments in git repositories while also having
the dependencies of those environments be remembered by Spack.

You can now provide multiple roots to a single `find()` call and all of
them will be searched. The roots can overlap (e.g. can be parents of one
another).
This also adds a library function for taking a set of regular expression
patterns and creating a single OR expression (and that library function
is used in `find` to improve its performance).
Set command line scopes last in _main, so they are higher scopes
Restore the global configuration in a spawned process by inspecting
the result of ctx.get_start_method()
Add the ability to pass a mp.context to PackageInstallContext.
Add shell-tests to check overriding the configuration:
- Using both -c and -C from command line
- With and without an environment active
* edm4hep: Add json variant for newer versions
Explicit option has been added to EDM4hep so we now expose it via a
variant as well. We keep the old behavior where we unconditionally
depended on nlohmann-json and implicitly built JSON support if we could
detect it cmake stage
* Fix condition statement in when clause
* Use open version range to avoid fixing to single version

Variants can now be propagated from a dependent package to (transitive) dependencies,
even if the source or transitive dependencies have the propagated variants.
For example, here `zlib` doesn't have a `guile` variant, but `gmake` does:
```
$ spack spec zlib++guile
- zlib@1.3%gcc@12.2.0+optimize+pic+shared build_system=makefile arch=linux-rhel8-broadwell
- ^gcc-runtime@12.2.0%gcc@12.2.0 build_system=generic arch=linux-rhel8-broadwell
- ^gmake@4.4.1%gcc@12.2.0+guile build_system=generic arch=linux-rhel8-broadwell
```
Adding this property has some strange ramifications for `satisfies()`. In particular:
* The abstract specs `pkg++variant` and `pkg+variant` do not intersect, because `+variant`
implies that `pkg` *has* the variant, but `++variant` does not.
* This means that `spec.satisfies("++foo")` is `True` if:
* for concrete specs: `spec` and its dependencies all have `foo` set if it exists
* for abstract specs: no dependency of `spec` has `~foo` (i.e. no dependency contradicts `++foo`).
* This also means that `Spec("++foo").satisfies("+foo")` is `False` -- we only know after concretization.
The `satisfies()` semantics may be surprising, but this is the cost of introducing non-subset
semantics (which are more useful than proper subsets here).
