[PATCH] env: Leave invalid env for nowhere location

When CONFIG_ENV_IS_NOWHERE is enabled, env_nowhere_init() sets ENV_INVALID
to gd->env_valid, and sets default_environment before relocation to
gd->env_addr. After that, env_init() switches gd->env_valid to ENV_VALID
by the previous fix.

If gd->env_valid is ENV_INVALID, env_get_char() returns relocated
default_environment, however, env_get_char() returns gd->env_addr before
relocation since gd->env_valid is ENV_VALID, and access to gd->env_addr
will cause a fault.

This leaves gd->env_valid as ENV_INVALID for "nowhere" location.
