Must be merged after #21493
Now that we've updated the internal API on formulae.brew.sh, let's actually allow you to load formulae from there.
We already have
HOMEBREW_USE_INTERNAL_API, but some folks have already enabled this flag from the last time we tried it. So, instead of using the same flag, let's introduceHOMEBREW_REALLY_USE_INTERNAL_API. This will be a maintainer-only flag just for testing, and when we're ready for more people to try it, we'll switch it over toHOMEBREW_USE_INTERNAL_API, and then eventually make it default.While we're here, there's some other cleanup from #21493 that we can do now, such as fully removing the
FormulaStubfile.
