Description

I've noticed that .add_source(config::File::with_name(".env")) does not work because .env "is not of a registered file format"

I think this library should support reading .env files, as well as .env.prod, etc.. files

Let me know what you think, I could submit a PR for this

Research direction

Start by locating the format registration used by config::File::with_name and reviewing how existing formats are selected. Check how filenames such as .env and .env.prod should be recognized and parsed, then verify that both forms can be read successfully without breaking existing formats.
