WIP: Modernize IDAES extensions toolchain / binaries

[mrmundt]

Summary

This is not fully complete yet - I need to update a bit of documentation before we can consider this to be truly ready to go. However, there is a full set of new binaries on my fork at https://github.com/mrmundt/idaes-ext/releases/tag/5.0.0rc1 that I want folks to play with for the time being.

Updates include...

• Entirely updated toolchain (boost, PETSc, HSL, etc.)
• HSL support for Mac Intel
• NO Metis support for MacOS Apple Silicon due to compatibility issues
• Builds for ubuntu 20.04, 22.04, 24.04, el8, el9, (x86_64 and aarch64), mac (x86_64 and arm64), and windows (x86_64 only)
• Reorganized tarball layout to use a more standard bin/lib/share structure:
  • Old layout:
    • idaes-lib-*.tar.gz - various libraries and helm_data/.
      - idaes-solvers-*.tar.gz - various solver executables and libraries.
    • idaes-petsc-*.tar.gz - petsc executable and petscpy/.
  • New layout:
    • New idaes-functions-*.tar.gz tarball:
      • lib/ - libraries from idaes-lib-*
      • helm_data/ - from idaes-lib-*
    • idaes-solvers-*.tar.gz now contains:
      • bin/ - solver and petsc executables (all executables)
      • lib/ - shared libraries from idaes-solvers-*, petscpy/, and (NEW) pkgconfig/
      • share/ - documentation
  • The separate idaes-lib-*.tar.gz and idaes-petsc-*.tar.gz tarballs are no longer produced;
    their contents have been folded into idaes-functions-*.tar.gz and idaes-solvers-*.tar.gz.
    The tarballs can be unpacked in one directory, causing the two separate lib folders to merge contents.
• Release no longer includes ipopt_l1 and ipopt_sens_l1

Other things we need to do:

1. Make an IDAES-specific cyipopt copy with my changes from https://github.com/mrmundt/cyipopt/tree/idaes-ipopt
2. Update IDAES-ipopt with the changes from https://github.com/mrmundt/Ipopt/tree/stable/3.14
3. After all of that is done... Make necessary updates to idaes-pse such that get-extensions functions correctly given the new structure of the tarballs

Very very exciting! This is all with the latest HSL?

NO Metis support for MacOS Apple Silicon due to compatibility issues

Is this with Metis 4 or Metis 5?

Make an IDAES-specific cyipopt copy with my changes from https://github.com/mrmundt/cyipopt/tree/idaes-ipopt

Is this related to mechmotum/cyipopt#277? CyIpopt should support pkg-config on Windows now (see mechmotum/cyipopt#293), so we might be able to do this without custom logic in CyIpopt. (I.e., we would update ipopt.pc to include all our Windows libraries (if it doesn't already), then make sure we set PKG_CONFIG_PATH before installing CyIpopt).

I'm not sure if it's the very latest. I think it's "the newest one we are contracted to access", whatever that version is.

Is this with Metis 4 or Metis 5?

Metis 4 is the version that coinbrew forces the toolchain to use. It might work with 5, but I couldn't figure out how to get it to actually do it. It's something I want to spend more time exploring.

Um, I'm not sure? These are the changes I made: mechmotum/cyipopt@master...mrmundt:cyipopt:idaes-ipopt

TODO: Update the auto tests on idaes-ext (this fork/branch) to run the Pyomo and IDAES tests after the initial ones pass.

@mrmundt, is this being replaced by a different PR? If so, could you point to here?
