Mike Ash f2fb53967c [Runtime] Unify debug variable parsing from the environment and avoid getenv when possible.
There are a few environment variables used to enable debugging options in the
runtime, and we'll likely add more over time. These are implemented with
scattered getenv() calls at the point of use. This is inefficient, as most/all
OSes have to do a linear scan of the environment for each call. It's also not
discoverable, since the only way to find these variables is to inspect the
source.

This commit places all of these variables in a central location.
stdlib/public/runtime/EnvironmentVariables.def defines all of the debug
variables including their name, type, default value, and a help string. On OSes
which make an `environ` array available, the entire array is scanned in a single
pass the first time any debug variable is requested. By quickly rejecting
variables that do not start with `SWIFT_`, we optimize for the common case where
no debug variables are set. We also have a fallback to repeated `getenv()` calls
when a full scan is not possible.

Setting `SWIFT_HELP=YES` will print out all available debug variables along with
a brief description of what they do.
