Environment variables cross references aren't supported

Details

    Description

      Unlike documented here https://github.com/jenkinsci/pipeline-model-definition-plugin/wiki/Syntax-Reference such sample doesn't work

          environment {
        FOO = "bar"
        OTHER = "${FOO}baz"
    }

      Firstly ${FOO} cannot work it is a groovy variable and it should be escaped

      OTHER = "\${FOO}baz"

      or 

      OTHER = '${FOO}baz'

      And even by escaping it it's not working

      and we have

      [declarative-pipeline] Running shell script
+ printenv
...
OTHER=nullbaz
...
FOO=bar
...

      note that FOO is seen as null which makes no sense in shell env (it should be empty if unknown.

      cc abayerjglickrsandell (should it be considered as a bug ? Or an improvement to do ?)
