See #26688: getenv() is not thread-safe, and could a possible source of problems when a multi-threaded program calls setenv()/putenv()/unsetenv() in parallel. It is not possible to avoid getenv() calls in general, since $PATH, $LANG, $SHELL, $USER, $HOME, $TZ may need to be accessed at any time. Add a warning to our docs so that people are aware of the issue. Closes #26688. (Real fixes will need to be in glibc and gnome-shell or other programs.) The text is added to threads-aware.xml to be included in various places. By including it in libsystemd-pkgconfig.xml, it is automatically added to all sd-* pages. The text is also included explicitly in pages for a few other functions which are call getenv().
