 init: remove broken env var interface for d/l/m

 The interface described in the manual was not implemented and not part of
 --help.
 It seems that it was broken at least since trans from Bash to Python
 (r37863)
 and definitevely before refactoring in r65235. Perhaps some time after env
 vars
 were definitevely removed from modules (r10655, r10790, r10793).

 Closes #2679 (Drop or fix setting...) and see #2681 for more explanation
 esp. about the unfortunate naming (LOCATION vs LOCATION_NAME).

 This removes the only code which seemed to be really specific for
 the grass - call and it removes a significat portion of the manual
 which discusses usage and env vars and command line params priorities
 in various combinations.
