Define environment variables by default
I think it'd make sense to define everything in process.env by default, so instead of
/// #if env == 'PRODUCTION'
/// #if PRODUCTION
one can do a more standard
/// #if NODE_ENV === 'production'
/// #if process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production'
Variables defined in options should overwrite bare variables like NODE_ENV but process.env should always reflect the actual environment.
I imagine this would allow to integrate the loader with default options in most cases.
Caution: on Windows, there are default environment variable names that contain ( character, such as ProgramFiles(x86).
If they are defined as part of options by default, it will cause error on this line:
