Task environment which provides access to project current directory and environment variables.
Remarks
The MSBuild engine sets this property on behalf of the task before the task is executed, so a task should not overwrite it during execution. The one exception is constructor injection: if a task declares a public constructor that takes a TaskEnvironment, the engine invokes that constructor with the current environment, and the task is expected to assign this property from within it. This lets the task compute environment-dependent default values during construction (property initializers run before the engine could otherwise assign the property).
