Create a way to provide environment variables #1097

As Scala lacks methods for setting environment variables, simulation of them for code that consumes environment is complicated.

I got away with build settings like that:

fork in run := true

envVars in run := Map(
  "MY_VAR" -> "MY VALUE"
)

Example:

println(sys.env("MY_VAR"))
Thread.sleep(5000)

The problems with that approach are:

the console output of the program is displayed differently than in normal mode (sbt prefix);
after program termination the bottom panel switches to the program output (which stays empty forever), effectively hiding the real output.

I suggest to add a tab where the user could set environment variables in an intuitive way.
