config: Adjust process.env to immediately punt to POSIX
The uppercase letter / digit / underscore restriction is just for "variables used by the utilities in the Shell and Utilities volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001". Copying over some POSIX wording and then linking to POSIX didn't seem like much gain. Just point people at POSIX and let them read about the name=value definition, charset suggestions, etc. there. Also link specifically to chapter 8 section 1 (instead of just chapter 8). Rob Dolin had suggested "platform-appropriate" wording [1], but it seems like Visual Studio 2015 supports an environment-variable array with the same semantics [2], and providing an explicit "platform-appropriate" wiggle seems like it's adding useless complication.
