/* Environment variables
 *
 * p9.env object provides a map between the /env device and Lua,
 * with its dynamic fields representing the environment variables.
 * Assigning a value to the field writes to the environment:
 *
 * 	p9.env.var = "value"
 *
 * while reading a value reads from the environment:
 *
 * 	assert(p9.env.var == "value")
 *
 * A value can be a string or a list.
 * A list is encoded (decoded) to (from) the environment as a
 * list of strings according to the encoding used by the rc(1)
 * shell (0-byte separated fields).
 *
 *	lua> p9.env.list = {"a", "b", "c"}
 *	rc> echo $#list  * $list
 *	3  * a b c
 *
 * p9.getenv(name) and p9.setenv(name, val) provide the more
 * usual API.
