remove duplicate environment variables from environ
If we see duplicate environment variables while iterating over environ[]: a) make sure we use the same value in %ENV that getenv() returns. Previously on a duplicate, %ENV would have the last entry for the name from environ[], but a typical getenv() would return the first entry. Rather than assuming all getenv() implementations return the first entry explicitly call getenv() to ensure they agree. b) remove duplicate entries from environ Previously if there was a duplicate definition for a name in environ[] setting that name in %ENV could result in an unsafe value being passed to a child process, so ensure environ[] has no duplicates.
