[PATCH 1/1 v2] pager: move pager-specific setup into the build

From: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Allowing PAGER_ENV to be set at build-time allows us to move pager-specific knowledge out of our build. Currently, this allows us to set a better default for FreeBSD where more(1) is the same binary as less(1).

This also prepares us for introducing a run-time config knob to override the build-time environment in the next commit.
