[SUREFIRE-1648] Failsafe does not pass LD_LIBRARY_PATH to JVM on Mac with SIP enabled

Hi,

We encountered a problem with using maven-failsafe-plugin on Mac with SIP (System Integrity Protection) enabled. We’re using failsafe to run our integration tests that depend on a native library that also requires LD_LIBRARY_PATH to be set. Failsafe plugin does not pass LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the process which leads to tests failures. According to the documentation [1] we can use environmentVariables parameter like this:

```java

  ${myLdLibraryPath}

```

This configuration works perfectly with Exec Maven Plugin, but it doesn't in failsafe.

Is it desired behaviour? Do you have any ideas how to pass necessary LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the integration tests?

**Affects:** 2.22.1

Start with the maven-failsafe-plugin integration-test documentation linked in the issue, especially the environmentVariables parameter, then trace how Failsafe launches integration-test JVMs. Done means the configured LD_LIBRARY_PATH reaches the test process on macOS with SIP enabled; add or update coverage if the repository provides a relevant test location.
