Forward calling environment to wcwc shell #8

Currently, calling wcwc shell produces a fresh shell environment irrespective of the calling shell environment.

An option should be added, eg wcwc shell --forward to forward the calling shell environment variables. Care is needed how to merge the calling environment and the one produced by wcwc shell. Eg, new PATH entries should be appended but only if not already present.

This option should be off by default to encourage cleanliness.

A WCWC_SHELL_FORWARD environment may be set to provide the value of this option.
