This reverts commit 9f02d0a.

It turns out that this does introduce a behavioral change in existing users of ConfigurationData, which it wasn't supposed to (it was supposed to preserve behavior there, and add a new warning for EnvironmentVariables).

This breaks projects such as pulseaudio, libvirt, and probably more. Roll back the change and try again after 1.5.0 is released.

Fixes: #13372

Given this is still not fixed in rc2 and rc3 is imminent, I think we really need to hold off on making this change.

I tried to find time two weeks ago to debug this but didn't, and it's going into the weekend and I won't have any time then either. The original design seems flawed to me but I am not sure how to do it better.

I have spent more time than I really wanted to spend late on a Friday, just pinpointing the exact issue. So at least we have a regression test now. :)

Bionic job fails due to actions/runner#3373 (comment)

Github has broken their runner deployment, basically. :D
