Subject: [ruby/net-http] Remove ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE_IS_MULTIUSER_SAFE

This list is out of date.  At least OpenBSD since 2013 does not
allow one user to read the environment variables of a process
run by another user.

While we could try to keep the list updated, I think it's a bad
idea to not use the user/password from the environment, even if
another user on the system could read it.  If http_proxy exists
in the environment, and other users can read it, it doesn't
make it more secure for Ruby to ignore it.  You could argue that
it encourages poor security practices, but net/http should provide
mechanism, not policy.

Fixes [Bug #18908]
