pager: move pager-specific setup into the build pager-env-v3

Allowing PAGER_ENV to be set at build-time allows us to move
pager-specific knowledge out of our build.  This allows us to
set a better default for FreeBSD more(1), which misbehaves if
MORE environment variable is left empty, but accepts the same
variables as less(1)
