pgwin32_unsetenv() (compatibility routine of unsetenv() on Windows)
lacks the input validation that its sibling pgwin32_setenv() has.
Without these checks, calling unsetenv() with incorrect names crashes on
WIN32. However, invalid names should be handled, failing on EINVAL.
This commit adds the same checks as setenv() to fail with EINVAL for a
"name" set to NULL, an empty string, or if '=' is included in the value,
per POSIX requirements.
Like 7ca37fb040, backpatch down to v14. pgwin32_unsetenv() is defined
on REL_13_STABLE, but with the branch going EOL soon and the lack of
setenv() there for WIN32, nothing is done for v13.

libpgport
=========
libpgport must have special behavior. It supplies functions to both
libraries and applications. However, there are two complexities:
1) Libraries need to use object files that are compiled with exactly
the same flags as the library. libpgport might not use the same flags,
so it is necessary to recompile the object files for individual
libraries. This is done by removing -lpgport from the link line:
# Need to recompile any libpgport object files
LIBS := $(filter-out -lpgport, $(LIBS))
and adding infrastructure to recompile the object files:
OBJS= execute.o typename.o descriptor.o data.o error.o prepare.o memory.o \
connect.o misc.o path.o exec.o \
$(filter strlcat.o, $(LIBOBJS))
The problem is that there is no testing of which object files need to be
added, but missing functions usually show up when linking user
applications.
2) For applications, we use -lpgport before -lpq, so the static files
from libpgport are linked first. This avoids having applications
dependent on symbols that are _used_ by libpq, but not intended to be
exported by libpq. libpq's libpgport usage changes over time, so such a
dependency is a problem. Windows, Linux, AIX, and macOS use an export
list to control the symbols exported by libpq.
