Core: fixed environment on exit.

On exit environment allocated from a pool is no longer available, leading
to a segmentation fault if, for example, a library tries to use it from
an atexit() handler.

Fix is to allocate environment via ngx_alloc() instead, and explicitly
free it using a pool cleanup handler if it's no longer used (e.g., on
configuration reload).
