Closes #10684. Running `pnpm config set` triggers `resolveAndInstallConfigDeps` before the new config (e.g. auth token) is saved to `.npmrc`, causing a 401 crash when the config dependency is hosted in a private registry. This patch adds a `tolerateConfigDependenciesErrors` flag to `installConfigDepsAndLoadHooks`. For `cmd === 'config'`, `'set'` and `'get'`, installation failures are now caught and logged at debug level so the command can proceed and actually write / read the auth token. `pnpm set` and `pnpm get` are separate top-level commands whose handlers delegate to the `config` command internally, so they are explicitly listed alongside `'config'`; users can hit #10684 via any of the three entry points. Plugin pnpmfile paths from `configDependencies` are resolved by checking each file's existence on disk, so previously-installed hooks survive a transient install failure and `requireHooks` won't throw `PNPMFILE_NOT_FOUND` when nothing has been installed yet. Covers the fix with: - Unit tests in `pnpm/test/getConfig.test.ts` exercising the `installConfigDepsAndLoadHooks` contract (success, tolerated error, rethrown error, store creation/close errors propagating) and the on-disk pnpmfile resolution behavior. - Four e2e tests in `pnpm/test/configurationalDependencies.test.ts` that spawn the pnpm CLI against a bogus `configDependency` and assert each entrypoint (`pnpm config set`, `pnpm config get`, `pnpm set`, `pnpm get`) still works. --------- Co-authored-by: Zoltan Kochan <z@kochan.io>

Fast, disk space efficient package manager:
- Fast. Up to 2x faster than the alternatives (see benchmark).
- Efficient. Files inside
node_modulesare linked from a single content-addressable storage. - Great for monorepos.
- Strict. A package can access only dependencies that are specified in its
package.json. - Deterministic. Has a lockfile called
pnpm-lock.yaml. - Works as a Node.js version manager. See pnpm runtime.
- Works everywhere. Supports Windows, Linux, and macOS.
- Battle-tested. Used in production by teams of all sizes since 2016.
- See the full feature comparison with npm and Yarn.
To quote the Rush team:
Microsoft uses pnpm in Rush repos with hundreds of projects and hundreds of PRs per day, and we’ve found it to be very fast and reliable.

Background
pnpm uses a content-addressable filesystem to store all files from all module directories on a disk. When using npm, if you have 100 projects using lodash, you will have 100 copies of lodash on disk. With pnpm, lodash will be stored in a content-addressable storage, so:
- If you depend on different versions of lodash, only the files that differ are added to the store.
If lodash has 100 files, and a new version has a change only in one of those files,
pnpm updatewill only add 1 new file to the storage. - All the files are saved in a single place on the disk. When packages are installed, their files are linked from that single place consuming no additional disk space. Linking is performed using either hard-links or reflinks (copy-on-write).
As a result, you save gigabytes of space on your disk and you have a lot faster installations!
