MINOR: tools: add an unsetenv() implementation
Older Solaris and AIX versions do not have unsetenv(). This adds a
fairly simple implementation which scans the environment, for use
with those systems. It will simply require to pass the define in
the "DEFINE" macro at build time like this :
DEFINE="-Dunsetenv=my_unsetenv"
