Subject: [PATCH] src: allow getting Symbols on process.env

1aa595e5bd6 introduced a `throw` for accessing `Symbol` properties of
`process.env`. However, this breaks `util.inspect(process)` and
things like `Object.prototype.toString.call(process.env)`, so this
patch changes the behaviour for the getter to just always return
`undefined`.
