…v var substitution default syntax (#3948)

Fixes #3752.

Implementation of the configuration working group recommendation as
[described
here](#3752 (comment)).

- Adds definition for `OTEL_EXPERIMENTAL_CONFIG_FILE `, which ignores
other env vars when evaluating, except env var substitution references
- Adds new env var substitution default syntax `${ENVVAR:-defaultValue}`
- Paired with
open-telemetry/opentelemetry-configuration#76,
which defines a new
[sdk-config.yaml](https://github.com/jack-berg/opentelemetry-configuration/blob/starter-template/examples/sdk-config.yaml)
starter template referencing all env vars that map cleanly.

Environment variable substitution MUST only apply to scalar values. Mapping keys

The `DEFAULT_VALUE` is an optional fallback value which is substituted

more non line break characters (i.e. any character except `\n`). If a referenced
environment variable is not defined and does not have a `DEFAULT_VALUE`, it MUST

Node types MUST be interpreted after environment variable substitution takes
place. This ensures the environment string representation of boolean, integer,
