  1. Flip --experimental_strict_action_env on by default. 

    See bazelbuild#2574. For a while, many actions did not respect the --action_env command line option, but those have been fixed now. So, I think it's time to flip on this flag for greater hermeticity by default.

RELNOTES: The --experimental_strict_action_env option is now on by default. This means Bazel will no longer use the client's PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH environmental variables in the default action environment. If the old behavior is desired, pass --action_env=PATH and --action_env=LD_LIBRARY_PATH. --noexperimental_strict_action_env will also temporarily restore the old behavior. However, as --action_env is a more general and explicit way to pass client environmental variables into actions, --noexperimental_strict_action_env will eventually be deprecated and removed.
