Add a -v and -N option to kenv(1), so it can be more easily used in
scripts the way sysctl(8) is. The -N option, like in sysctl(8),
displays only the kenv names, not their values. The -v option prints an
individual kenv variable name with its value as name="value". This is
the inverse of sysctl(8)'s -n flag, since the default behaviour of
kenv(1) is already like sysctl(8) -n.
