- Previously I thought that comments were fine to discourage people from
wasting their time trying to bump things that used `undef` that Sorbet
didn't support. But RuboCop is better at this since it'll complain if
the comments are unnecessary.
- Suggested in https://github.com/Homebrew/brew/pull/18018#issuecomment-2283369501.
- I've gone for a mixture of `rubocop:disable` for the files that can't
be `typed: strict` (use of undef, required before everything else, etc)
and `rubocop:todo` for everything else that should be tried to make
strictly typed. There's no functional difference between the two as
`rubocop:todo` is `rubocop:disable` with a different name.
- And I entirely disabled the cop for the docs/ directory since
`typed: strict` isn't going to gain us anything for some Markdown
linting config files.
- This means that now it's easier to track what needs to be done rather
than relying on checklists of files in our big Sorbet issue:
```shell
$ git grep 'typed: true # rubocop:todo Sorbet/StrictSigil' | wc -l
268
```
- And this is confirmed working for new files:
```shell
$ git status
On branch use-rubocop-for-sorbet-strict-sigils
Untracked files:
(use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
Library/Homebrew/bad.rb
Library/Homebrew/good.rb
nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track)
$ brew style
Offenses:
bad.rb:1:1: C: Sorbet/StrictSigil: Sorbet sigil should be at least strict got true.

This improves the load time of most brew commands. For an example of
one of the simplest commands this speeds up:
Without Bootsnap:
```
$ hyperfine 'git checkout master; brew help' 'git checkout optimise_requires; brew help'
Benchmark 1: git checkout master; brew help
Time (mean ± σ): 525.0 ms ± 35.8 ms [User: 229.9 ms, System: 113.1 ms]
Range (min … max): 465.3 ms … 576.6 ms 10 runs
Benchmark 2: git checkout optimise_requires; brew help
Time (mean ± σ): 383.3 ms ± 25.1 ms [User: 133.0 ms, System: 72.1 ms]
Range (min … max): 353.0 ms … 443.6 ms 10 runs
Summary
git checkout optimise_requires; brew help ran
1.37 ± 0.13 times faster than git checkout master; brew help
```

This environment variable allows telling Homebrew to use the `SUDO_USER`
variable to `sudo` through that user when Homebrew (Cask) attempts to
run `sudo`.
While we're here, clarify in some messaging that we're running `sudo`
and that that's the password we're asking for; the specific password is
configuration dependent and not the specific password for the user.
Similarly, remove the `Package installers may write to any location`
output; it's kinda spammy and doesn't feel like the right place.
With sudoers one may override default sudo user. This mostly works
provided the admin configured the replacement appropriately. However
there are exceptions that absolutely must be run by root such as
/usr/sbin/installer and, under certain circumstances, /bin/launchctl.
Using /usr/bin/env as a frontend for the actual command
prevents sudoers from restricting allowed commands and configuring
detailed command environment.
