Summary
I've gotten annoyed with our various installations clobbering the contents of ~/.spack, having to periodically delete ~/.spack as we work across multiple Spack versions, etc. This PR makes our installations self contained by putting the bootstrap and cache directories that would normally go under ~/.spack in $SPACK_ROOT.
Testing
Tested on personal machine. Needs further testing on HPC systems etc.
