[GRASS-dev] GRASS_RENDER_IMMEDIATE in GRASS7

HI,

AFAIU GRASS_RENDER_IMMEDIATE is used in GRASS7 to set up the display
driver, e.g. `cairo` or `ps`. Values TRUE or FALSE are ignored. In
this case I would suggest to rename this variable to GRASS_DISPLAY or
something similar.

Similarly GRASS_PNGFILE is used in cairo to set up for e.g. pdf file
(GRASS_PNGFILE=map.pdf), `ps` drivers defines GRASS_PSFILE. I would
suggest to use only one - generic variable, something like
GRASS_MAPFILE, GRASS_OUTFILE or GRASS_FILENAME.

Any opinions?

Martin
