On macOS 14 and newer, `/usr/libexec/path_helper` supports setting a
`PATH_HELPER_ROOT` environment variable.
With this set, `path_helper` checks `$PATH_HELPER_ROOT/etc/paths` and
`$PATH_HELPER_ROOT/etc/paths.d` in the same way it checks `/etc/paths`
and `/etc/paths.d`.
We can use this to simplify management of the user's `PATH` variable
when they do `brew shellenv`. In particular, if their system supports
it, we delegate setting the `PATH` environment variable to `path_helper`
instead of our own code. We also write a default `etc/paths` file if one
is not already present.
This is nicer because it simplifies management of the user's `PATH`
variable. For example, if a user wants a keg-only formula to be in their
`PATH`, they can simply add the necessary path to `/etc/paths` or
`/etc/paths.d` without having to do something like `brew link --force`
or adding to `PATH` themselves.
When `/usr/libexec/path_helper` is not available, we just fall back to
the existing code.
- 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.

Fish didn't support `$(...)` substitution until v3.4.0, but the command
didn't work with just parenthesis, so rewrite the test to prepend an
empty string if MANPATH is non-empty (to trigger a leading colon).
Only manipulate INFOPATH in Fish if Homebrew not in path already.
We were selectively requiring the tap.rb file in a few places for
performance reasons. The main method we were referencing was the
`Tap.cmd_directories` method which uses `Pathname` and the `TAP_DIRECTORY`
constant internally. `Tap.cmd_directories` is mostly used in the `Commands`
module and that is loaded very early on in the program so it made sense
to move that command to that module. To facilitate that I moved the
`TAP_DIRECTORY` constant to the top-level and renamed it to
`HOMEBREW_TAP_DIRECTORY`. It now lies in the tap_constants.rb file.
A nice bonus of this refactor is that it speeds up loading external
commands since the tap.rb file is no longer required by default in
those cases.
