e2e: isolate test command env from system env

When running Docker / Compose commands, do NOT inherit the system
environment to ensure that the tests are reproducible regardless
of host settings.

Additionally, per-command environment overrides are provided to
the command instead of using `os.SetEnv`, as this is not safe when
running tests in parallel (`testing.T::SetEnv` will actually error
if used in this way!)
