Add a `spack external find` command that tries to populate
`packages.yaml` with external packages from the user's `$PATH`. This
focuses on finding build dependencies. Currently, support has only been
added for `cmake`.
For a package to be discoverable with `spack external find`, it must define:
* an `executables` class attribute containing a list of
regular expressions that match executable names.
* a `determine_spec_details(prefix, specs_in_prefix)` method
Spack will call `determine_spec_details()` once for each prefix where
executables are found, passing in the path to the prefix and the path to
all found executables. The package is responsible for invoking the
executables and figuring out what type of installation(s) are in the
prefix, and returning one or more specs (each with version, variants or
whatever else the user decides to include in the spec).
The found specs and prefixes will be added to the user's `packages.yaml`
file. Providing the `--not-buildable` option will mark all generated
entries in `packages.yaml` as `buildable: False`
Users can now list mirrors of the main url in packages.
- [x] Instead of just a single `url` attribute, users can provide a list (`urls`) in the package, and these will be tried by in order by the fetch strategy.
- [x] To handle one of the most common mirror cases, define a `GNUMirrorPackage` mixin to handle all the standard GNU mirrors. GNU packages can set `gnu_mirror_path` to define the path within a mirror, and the mixin handles setting up all the requisite GNU mirror URLs.
- [x] update all GNU packages in `builtin` to use the `GNUMirrorPackage` mixin.
We'd like to use a consistent checksum scheme everywhere so that we can:
a) incorporate archive checksums into our specs and have a
consistent hashing algorithm across all specs.
b) index mirrors with a consistent type of checksum, and not one that
is dependent on how spack packages are written.
- [x] convert existing md5, sha224, sha512, sha1 checksums to sha256
- remove the old LGPL license headers from all files in Spack
- add SPDX headers to all files
- core and most packages are (Apache-2.0 OR MIT)
- a very small number of remaining packages are LGPL-2.1-only

Package repositories now look like this:
top-level-dir/
repo.yaml
packages/
libelf/
package.py
mpich/
package.py
...
This leaves room at the top level for additional metadata, source,
per-repo configs, indexes, etc., and it makes it easy to see that
something is a spack repo (just look for repo.yaml and packages).
