Description

Hello,

Please consider providing a  method to unset an environment variable.

Currently the environmentVariables enables to set a value but not to remove.

The option of using <KEY/> was nice as removal option, however, it was interprated in SUREFIRE-963 as an empty string instead of removal.

The use case is to have a clean environment variable table to allow isolating tests from the build environment.

Thanks!
