Jesse Szwedko e367fafa3d Return an error when parsing environment variables for values fails
Currently cli silently (aside from IntSlice and Int64Slice which oddly
printed directly to the error stream) ignores failures that occur when
parsing environment variables for their value for flags that define
environment variables. Instead, we should propogate up the error to the
user.

This is accomplished in a backwards compatible manner by adding a new,
internal, interface which defines an applyWithError function that all
flags here define. In v2, when we can modify the interface, we can drop
this secondary interface and modify `Apply` to return an error.
