man: improve description of environment block creation
This adds a general description of "philosphy" of keeping the environemnt block small and hints about systemd-run -P env. The list of generated variables is split out to a subsection. Viewing the patch with ignoring whitespace changes is recommended. We don't ignore invalid assignments (except in import-environment to some extent), previous description was wrong. For https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1912046#c17.
