os.GetEnv doesn't distinguish between unset vars and vars set to the empty string. However, LookupEnv does. This means PatchEnvironment would leave behind env vars set to the empty string when they were previously unset
These env var would then be picked up by LookupEnv, which can cause unexpected errors.
Update dependencies as a drive-by
QA Steps
Verify unit tests pass
Verify juju unit testing suite passes as usual using this in place of juju/testing
Also, write a test for some code which uses os.LookupEnv, branching based it's second return var, and performs some validation on the env var value. Perhaps you are wish to parse a boolean config option from your environment.
Verify these tests fail when you PatchEnvironment with upstream. Then verify the pass with this iteration
