By default godotenv.Load will load the file .env. This commit adds an option to override that. You can, for example use
--env=.env,.env.local to allow team members to override shared environment variables or --env="" to avoid loading any environment file at all.

The latter is vital for when the subprocesses load their own environment files in a certain order. I.E. dotenv-rails

Note that this option is also included in the original foreman where it functions exactly the same as far as I can tell.
