Description

Do not override ENV variable (by ".profile") for ash/dash subshell if it is already set. Currently, mc would fallback to ".profile" file disregarding the existing value of ENV. ENV variable is used to set interactive shell rc-file for ash/dash (or POSIX shells in general). I believe fallback to ENV should be preferred and also consistent with behavior of bash subshell where mc fallbacks ri .bashrc.
