Implement env variable for altering the default query limit in genquery #712

[paulborgermans]

See #712

Would we like this to be implemented in terms of @korydraughn's suggestion (#712 (comment)), that is as part of the client configuration

If we do it that way, it comes with a free (albeit more verbosely named) environment variable ; ) ... in other words, use of the config file per se is not required.

Let's use the mechanisms provided by the PRC. Other configuration properties are managed by that file and adding another sounds like the correct path forward.

As you said, the environment variable becomes free as well.

@d-w-moore Does that align with the original goal of the client config mechanism?

Yes. I'll modify as necessary
