[tor-commits] [tor/master] Stop checking whether environ is declared.

commit 954eeda619a59dae76144ad69967f0ed7341b564
Author: Nick Mathewson <nickm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

    Stop checking whether environ is declared.
    
    There seems to be pretty good evidence that it's always declared,
    and that checking for it is pointless.
    
    Closes ticket 19142.
