Subject: fix(gx): visual selection, expand env vars

Rejected experiment: move vim.ui.open() to vim.env.open()

Problem:
`vim.ui` is where user-interface "providers" live, which can be
overridden. It would also be useful to have a "providers" namespace for
platform-specific features such as "open", clipboard, python, and the other
providers listed in `:help providers`. We could overload `vim.ui` to
serve that purpose as the single "providers" namespace, but
`vim.ui.nodejs()` for example seems awkward.

Solution:
`vim.env` currently has too narrow of a purpose. Overload it to also be
a namespace for `vim.env.open`.
