Allow using env var to specify pidfile
Previously it was only possible to specify the location of the pidfile
for the 'rails server' command with the '-P' flag. This adds support for
specifying the pidfile using a PIDFILE env var, which can still be
overridden by the '-P' flag and with the default pidfile path unchanged.
The motivation for this feature comes from using Docker to run multiple
instances of the same rails app. When developing a rails app with
Docker, it's common to bind-mount the rails root directory in the
running container, so that changes to files are shared between the
container and the host. However, this doesn't work so well with the
pidfile and it's necessary to (remember to) add a '-P' flag to the
'rails server' command line; being able to specify this flag using an
env var would make developing with Rails+Docker a bit simpler.
