Why this should be merged
Adds a
.envrcfile for use with direnv enables automatic configuration of paths and environment variables to simplify usage of test tooling. For example,ginkgoandtmpnetctlcan be invoked directly and without having to specify the--avalanchego-pathor--plugin-dirflags. It also avoids the use of global paths for those of us that develop concurrently on multiple local worktrees.How this works
