Allow appending to the PATH in environment sections

    • Declarative - 1.2

      You should be able to append to the path in the environment sections of a pipeline. Scripted pipelines support this through PATH+WHATEVER syntax in the `withEnv` step.

      Attempting to use PATH = "${PATH}:..." at a top level results in this error being thrown "groovy.lang.MissingPropertyException: No such property: PATH", and attempting to use PATH+WHATEVER results in "(PATH + GO) is a binary expression, but it should be a variable expression"

          Hmmmmmm. Good question. PATH+WHATEVER definitely won't work as something to set, and PATH isn't yet available at the time we're processing the environment, so we need some way to let you get to PATH+WHATEVER...

          Ah-ha, just realized that https://github.com/jenkinsci/pipeline-model-definition-plugin/pull/110 should actually let us do this, with some parsing changes...

          Grr, nope. That doesn't work after all - the compilation error is hitting too soon.

          This is fixed as part of JENKINS-42753, which will be included in the upcoming Declarative 1.2 release.
