document that setenv is now strict

When 2.6.0 was released some people reported that the third-party `rbenv`
and `pyenv` commands were incorrectly depending on our `setenv` function
not behaving exactly like the csh command of the same name. Specifically,
our version had a bug. It allowed more than one value. It no longer
does so after it was rewritten so that the three auto-split vars were
correctly handled.
