engine: Read several options from environment variables

The following environment variables are checked:

    CLOE_SIMULATION_UUID="string"
        Corresponds to -u, --uuid option.

    CLOE_WRITE_OUTPUT=0|1
        Corresponds to --write-output, --no-write-output flags.

    CLOE_REQUIRE_SUCCESS=0|1
        Corresponds to --require-success, --no-require-success flags.

    CLOE_LOG_LEVEL=trace|debug|info|warn|error|critical
        Corresponds to -l, --level option.

    CLOE_STRICT_MODE=0|1
        Corresponds to -t, --strict, --no-strict flags.

    CLOE_SECURE_MODE=0|1
        Corresponds to -s, --secure, --no-secure flags.

Note that a command line argument takes precedence over these
environment variables.
