Bug #44796 - Add support for /etc/portage/package.env. As documented in

man/portage.5:

Per-package environment variable settings. Entries refer to environment
files that are placed in the /etc/portage/env/ directory and have the
same format as make.conf(5).
Format:
- comment lines begin with # (no inline comments)
- one DEPEND atom per line followed by name(s) of environment file(s)

Example:
sys-libs/glibc glibc.conf
