Pull request overview

Updates the EIC container Spack configuration to consume npsim v1.8.0 (per the referenced release) by tightening the package version constraint and aligning the pinned eic/eic-spack recipe revision to one that should contain the updated npsim package metadata.

Changes:

• Bump the required npsim version in spack-environment/packages.yaml from @1.7.0 to @1.8.0.
• Update the pinned eic/eic-spack commit in eic-spack.sh to a newer revision.

To update the high-water mark after an intentional size increase:
  1. Re-run this script to inspect the published image size:
     scripts/check_image_size "ghcr.io/eic/eic_xl@sha256:c6750e93fc08b6c7ffa9dabc22cadb428d0b7bf9c754d9b79087408536d6c501" "4.6"
  2. Add ~15% buffer, and optionally round up to the next whole GiB
  3. Update SIZE_LIMIT_*_GIB in .github/workflows/build-push.yml and .gitlab-ci.yml
