[PATCH] doc: environment: clarify env precedence

[mark.jonas at de.bosch.com]

From: Ricardo Simoes <ricardo.simoes at pt.bosch.com>

Since commit 5cf6a06a it is possible to have both text-based and
old-style C environment files. But so far the environment documentation
has not reflected this change. This commit fixes that.
