util: Add session env variables to child env

Marco Trevisan requested to merge 3v1n0/gnome-session:env-variables-export into master

GNOME Session does not replicate all the environment variables to its children while it sets them as activation environment for both DBUs and Systemd.

This is causing the g-s child not to use pre-set variables such as XDG_RUNTIME_DIR for launching its children such as the whale dialog.

Fixes #15 (closed)


To fix issue #15 (closed) actually would be just needed to call gsm_util_setenv on XDG_RUNTIME_DIR but since these variables are already passed to both dbus and systemd I expect also gnome-session to use them fully.
