Having the function isn't just nice for typo prevention - it's also a
reasonable boundary around the pager subsystem. We could imagine a
world where we wanted to track the pager status using a static
var instead of an env var (not that we'd even want that :P), and this
inlining makes that harder.
From the cover letter, it seems like we only need this to remove
"#include pager.h" from date.c, and that's only used in
parse_date_format(). Could we add a is_pager/pager_in_use to that
function and push the pager.h dependency upwards?
