set variables before checkout

[kizdebski]

Can we move providing environment parameters before checkout? Some plugins like jenkins release plugin (my case) run in "Build Environment, not directly in "Build". Effect is that during releasing version variables are not generated yet. Moving variables generation before scm checkout solves such cases.

Pre-checkout does not actually cover all cases. E.g. if you use a Pre-SCM build step, the info won't be propagated there. Fix like https://github.com/oleg-nenashev/ownership-plugin/commit/9871283990bd76c8f04bb61cfdeb4a1c30159a4c should be a better solution
