Description

It would be good to have automatic .env file detection and parsing, while variables-file option and environment variables should work as overrides.

Research direction

Start by tracing Hurl's CLI option handling and environment-variable loading to find where variables-file values are applied. Define the precedence between automatic .env values, variables-file values, and environment variables, then verify that automatic detection and overrides behave consistently in the relevant CLI tests.
