The ODB transaction backend is responsible for creating/managing its own staging area for writing objects. Other child processes spawned by Git may need access to uncommitted objects or write new objects in the staging area though. Introduce `odb_transaction_env()` which is expected to provide the set of environment variables needed by a child process to access the transaction's staging area.
