[PATCH 1/3] cmd/nvedit.c: teach 'env default' to optionally keep runtime variables

It can be useful to set all variables defined in the default
environment to the value they have there, but without removing
variables that are only defined at runtime. This can sort-of be done
today, by using the "env default var1 var2 ..." variant, but that
requires listing all variables defined in the default
environment. It's much more convenient to be able to say
env default -k -a
The -k flag is also meaningful in the other case: If var1 is not
defined in the default environment, but var2 is,
env default var1 var2
would emit a warning about var1 not being in the default env and thus
being deleted. With -k, there's no warning, and var1 is kept as-is.
