locks: add configuration and command-line options to enable/disable locks (#7692)
- spack.util.lock behaves the same as llnl.util.lock, but Lock._lock and
  Lock._unlock do nothing.

- can be disabled with a control variable.

- configuration options can enable/disable locking:
  - `locks` option in spack configuration controls whether Spack will use filesystem locks or not.
  - `-l` and `-L` command-line options can force-disable or force-enable locking.

- Spack will check for group- and world-writability before disabling
  locks, and it will not allow a group- or world-writable instance to
  have locks disabled.

- update documentation

#
# Settings here are versioned with Spack and are intended to provide
# sensible defaults out of the box. Spack maintainers should edit this
# file to keep it current.
#
# Users can override these settings by editing the following files.
#
# Per-spack-instance settings (overrides defaults):
# $SPACK_ROOT/etc/spack/config.yaml
#
# Per-user settings (overrides default and site settings):
# ~/.spack/config.yaml

# When set to true, concurrent instances of Spack will use locks to

# enabling locks.
