As discovered in #29298, `env::set_var("", "")` will panic, but it turns out
that it *also* deadlocks on Unix systems. This happens because if a panic
happens while holding the environment lock, we then go try to read
RUST_BACKTRACE, grabbing the environment lock, causing a deadlock.
Specifically, the changes made here are:
* The environment lock is pushed into `std::sys` instead of `std::env`. This
also only puts it in the Unix implementation, not Windows where the functions
are already threadsafe.
* The `std::sys` implementation now returns `io::Result` so panics are
explicitly at the `std::env` level.
