Kernelspec.json can contain outdated env variables

[DonJayamanne]

Today we add env variables into kernelspec to ensure conda environments launch correctly.
However we never update these vars.
Thus if a user updates the env variables, things might not work as expected.

Note:

• When we run jupyter we always use the latest environment variables.
• I.e. jupyter is started with latest env variables
• Kernel is started with old variables.
• Thus new variables should show up in kernel process, not sure about existing ones such as PATH, and the like.

Would be hi pri, as we identified a state that was broken on @IanMatthewHuff machine. Only solution is to:

• Delete kernel
• Or update env in kernelspec.json
• Or use new kernel

Yay, validated
