Support reading from $HOME/.npmrc

[robertshuford]

What does this PR do?

This builds upon the work done in #11979 by adding support for $HOME/.npmrc.
Settings in ./.npmrc will override settings in $HOME/.npmrc.

• Code changes

How did you verify your code works?

I wrote automated tests

• I checked the lifetime of memory allocated to verify it's (1) freed and (2) only freed when it should be
• I included a test for the new code, or an existing test covers it
• I wrote TypeScript/JavaScript tests and they pass locally (bun-debug test test-file-name.test)

resolves #13764

Can't wait for this to merge. Will make our workflow so much easier since aws codeartifact login --tool npm insists on only generating a .npmrc in the $HOME directory. Devs have to manually move it into the local repo every time.

Looks great, thanks!

Tested locally, going to merge

This does not seem to work for me with a global config like this:

@slug:registry=https://my-registry.tld/
//my-registry.tld/:_authToken="<token>"

and a project config like this:

@slug:registry=https://my-registry.tld/

https://my-registry.tld/:always-auth=true

auto-install-peers=true
engine-strict=true
prefer-frozen-lockfile=true
resolution-mode=highest
save-exact=true
save-prefix=''
strict-peer-dependencies=true
update-notifier=true

I am on macOS.

@lenovouser is it using the wrong registry for the @slug scope? Could you open a new issue?

[lenovouser]

@dylan-conway no, it doesn't use the auth token I believe.

Second this. In my case //my-registry.tld/:_auth="". We use JFrog. I tried many things I even converted npmrc to bunfig.toml, nothing works. Bun basically doesn't work with JFrog.
