core Native support for .env files

Native support for .env files

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

@oclif/core should natively support .env files using process.loadEnvFile

Describe the solution you'd like

Call process.loadEnvFile at the beginning of run using path set in settings

The call should be gated by a check for the node version to avoid any runtime errors.

Is there any workaround for supporting .env files in oclif?

You can you use dotenv in CLI's bin/run.js to load a .env file

@mdonnalley I see! I've already done this actually. 😄 But how can I make that work for the bin/run.cmd bin file for Windows?

bin/run.cmd just runs bin/run.js so whatever you do in there should also work for windows
