Fix: race between lttng-ust getenv() and application setenv()
The LTTng-UST listener threads invoke getenv(), which can cause issues
if the application issues setenv() concurrently. This is a legitimate
use by the application because it may have a single thread and not be
aware that it runs with liblttng-ust.
Fix this by keeping our own environment variable table for the variables
we care about. Initialize this table within the lttng-ust library
constructor, when we don't race with the application.
As this thread shows:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=5069#c10
getenv() does _not_ appear to be thread-safe if an application uses
setenv() or putenv().
