Merge r960233 from trunk:

mod_rewrite: Allow to set environment variables without
explicitely giving a value.

Before this patch using [ENV=VAR] instead of [ENV=VAR:VAL]
silently drops the flag (it is added to the list of vars to set,
but then never actually set).

-  *) mod_rewrite: Allow to set environment variables using mod_rewrite without
-     explicitely giving a value.
-     Most modules only check presence of a variable, not the value, so it makes
-     sense to make the VAL argument in the mod_rewrite ENV flag optional.
-     Currently using [ENV=VAR] instead of [ENV=VAR:VAL] silently drops the flag
