[BUG] npm 7.x ignores publishConfig.registry scope is provided

[ohardy]

Current Behavior:

npm publish does not follow publishConfig.registry scoped registry configured in publishConfig.registry

Expected Behavior:

npm publish publish to defined scoped publishConfig.registry

Steps To Reproduce:

1. Install npm@latest-7
2. Set publishConfig.registry IE: "publishConfig": { "@My-Scope:registry": "https://..." }
3. Run npm publish

Environment:

OS: Max OS 10.15.7
Node: 14.14.0
npm: 7.0.2

Fixed in latest release.

Is it possible that the fix for this could have re-broken #1937 ? As I commented there, as of 7.3.0, publish is ignoring my publishConfig.registry.
