Ensure correct configuration for EnvironmentModules

Defines environment variables when initializing EnvironmentModules
object to ensure that this module tool will not be influenced by
external configuration.

Setup Environment Modules configuration to ensure module search behaves
like EasyBuild expects (match module name start, case sensitive, return
in-depth modulepath content, ignore cache file). Also defines a basic
output configuration not to get unexpected content like tags or
variants.

This change helps to pass "test_avail" test with Environment Modules
v5.0+.
