Add `brew tab`, a new command to edit tab information, as previously
discussed in https://github.com/Homebrew/brew/pull/17125#issuecomment-2068473483.
Currently, this supports marking or unmarking formulae as installed on
request.
Sample usage:
$ brew tab --installed-on-request curl
==> curl is now marked as installed on request.
$ brew autoremove --dry-run
[no output]
$ brew tab --no-installed-on-request curl
==> curl is now marked as not installed on request.
$ brew autoremove --dry-run
==> Would autoremove 2 unneeded formulae:
curl
rtmpdump

- This is cleaner than vendoring a whole bunch of new gems and pinning `psych`.
- Thanks for the pointer, Bo!
- It doesn't work, though?

- Byebug was introduced in [2020](https://github.com/Homebrew/brew/pull/7577) for hooking into tests for debugging.
- It does not work anymore in so far as it does not stop at breakpoints when following the instructions to trigger them in tests.
DomT4 and the Homebrew maintainers have agreed that homebrew/autoupdate
is a better fit for not being an official tap and has been moved back
to his user account.
Documentation and code has been adjusted accordingly and it was added
to the list of interesting taps.
If there are duplicate PRs: we shouldn't suggest and allow a trivial
override. Instead, they should be created manually.
An undocumented override exists for BrewTestBot to do autobumps.
This will allow us to more easily measure test performance. The only
downside here is that we can't use it with parallel rspec because
it will show the n slowest tests for each parallel rspec run which
is not what we want.
The hope is that this will be clearer and less annoying for users.
A user came to us a couple weeks ago stating that it was confusing
that the `brew upgrade` command printed an error when a pinned
formula had a new version available and didn't get upgraded.
This PR changes that message to a warning from an error. While looking
into this we found that there is another message that gets printed
when a package dependency doesn't get upgraded because it is pinned
and that got turned into a warning from a normal message. Honestly,
that should be more worrying for the user anyway; it could lead to
a program not working correctly in the worst case.
I also added a message to the `brew pin` command warning about
potential unintended behavior if a dependency gets pinned and another
package requires a newer version of it.
Lastly, I added a commented out deprecation notice for the
`brew upgrade --ignore-pinned` command since it's now the default.
