Windows executable paths can have spaces in them, which was leading to
errors when constructing Executable objects: the parser was intended
to handle cases where users could provide an executable along with one
or more space-delimited arguments.
* Executable now assumes that it is constructed with a string argument
that represents the path to the executable, but no additional arguments.
* Invocations of Executable.__init__ that depended on this have been
updated (this includes the core, tests, and one instance of builtin
repository package).
* The error handling for failed invocations of Executable.__call__ now
includes a check for whether the executable name/path contains a
space, to help users debug cases where they (now incorrectly)
concatenate the path and the arguments.
* The module-level skip for tests in `cmd.install` on Windows is removed.
A few classes of errors still persist:
* Cdash tests are not working on Windows
* Tests for failed installs are also not working (this will require
investigating bugs in output redirection)
* Environments are not yet supported on Windows
overall though, this enables testing of most basic uses of "spack install"
* Git repositories cached for version lookups were using a layout that
mimicked the URL as much as possible. This was useful for listing the
cache directory and understanding what was present at a glance, but
the paths were overly long on Windows. On all systems, the layout is
now a single directory based on a hash of the Git URL and is shortened
(which ensures a consistent and acceptable length, and also avoids
special characters).
* In particular, this removes util.url.parse_git_url and its associated
test, which were used exclusively for generating the git cache layout
* Bootstrapping is now enabled for unit tests on Windows
Change the shebang in mkinc from /usr/bin/perl to /usr/bin/env perl for
portability to systems that don't necessarily have perl in /usr/bin.
Also adds perl as a build-time dependency.
#36770 added git as a dependency to `setuptools-scm`. This in turn makes `git` a
transitive dependency for our bootstrapping process.
Since `git` may take a long time to build, and is found on most systems, try to
detect it as an external.
* WarpX 23.07
Update WarpX and related Python packages to the lastest releases.
* py-picmistandard: refresh hashes
Keeping even a single `git` version in here confuses the fetcher.
Remove broken old versions.
* Remove `py-warpx` versions with broken PICMI
* py-cryptography: does not run-depend on py-setuptools-rust
* py-cryptography: depens_on py-setuptools-rust when @3.4.2:

* py-cryptography: re-add depends_on type=run for narrow range

This makes the name of the global variable representing
the repository currently in use uppercase. Doing so is advised
by pylint rules, and helps to identify where the global is used.
