Replace the libc environment with a thread-safe emulation
putenv(3) and friends aren't thread-safe regardless of how you slice it; a global lock around all environment operations (like before) keeps things safe as far as our own operations go, but we have absolutely no control over what libc or a library dragged in by a driver/NIF does -- they're free to call getenv(3) or putenv(3) without honoring our lock. This commit solves this by setting up an "emulated" environment which can't be touched without going through our interfaces. Third-party libraries can still shoot themselves in the foot but benign uses of os:putenv/2 will no longer risk crashing the emulator.
