kops -h should show ENV variables

[chrislovecnm]

Our ENV variables are hidden from the user. I would recommend having another section in the help that describes which ENV variables we have and how to use them.

Most of the env variables are in urls.go

@chrislovecnm - Hi Chris I'd like to add the documentation for this. Quick look and I can only see the following Environment Variables:

    defaultStateStore := os.Getenv("KOPS_STATE_STORE")

    defaultClusterName := os.Getenv("KOPS_CLUSTER_NAME")

Any others you can find?

I did a search for os.Getenv
