Extend the ManifestLoaderProtocol to allow a custom manifest loader to provide custom environment variables when compiling the manifest.
Motivation:
Clients of libSwiftPM can already provide a set of custom flags to pass to the Swift compiler when compiling and linking the manifest. This extends this support to allow custom environment entries as well. There's no immediate use for this in SwiftPM itself, but it could be used in the future, and some clients need this.
Modifications:
Result:
Clients of libSwiftPM can specify environment entries. Note that this does not affect the environment that is passed when running the compiled manifest.
