Bug #17254: ENV.replace may set nil instead of the proper value

On docs.ruby-lang.org, it uses [snap ruby](https://snapcraft.io/ruby), and it failed to run `rdoc`.

I investigate it, it caused by setting nil instead of the proper value in `ENV.replace`.

```
vagrant@buster:/tmp/t$ cat Gemfile
# frozen_string_literal: true

source "https://rubygems.org"

git_source(:github) {|repo_name| "https://github.com/#{repo_name}" }

# gem "rails"
vagrant@buster:/tmp/t$ env PATH=/var/www/docs.ruby-lang.org/shared/bundle/ruby/2.7.0/bin:/snap/bin:$PATH DEBIAN_DISABLE_RUBYGEMS_INTEGRATION=1 bundle exec env -u RUBYOPT ruby -r/snap/ruby/189/lib/ruby/gems/2.7.0/gems/bundler-2.1.4/lib/bundler/setup -e 'p ENV["RUBYLIB"]'
"/snap/ruby/189/lib/ruby/gems/2.7.0/gems/bundler-2.1.4/lib"
```

Calling `ENV.clear` before `ENV.replace` resolves this issue.

```
vagrant@buster:/tmp/t$ cat /tmp/clear-before-replace.rb
class << ENV
  alias orig_replace replace
  def replace(h)
    clear
    orig_replace(h)
  end
end
vagrant@buster:/tmp/t$ env PATH=/var/www/docs.ruby-lang.org/shared/bundle/ruby/2.7.0/bin:/snap/bin:$PATH DEBIAN_DISABLE_RUBYGEMS_INTEGRATION=1 bundle exec env -u RUBYOPT ruby -r/tmp/clear-before-replace -r/snap/ruby/189/lib/ruby/gems/2.7.0/gems/bundler-2.1.4/lib/bundler/setup -e 'p ENV["RUBYLIB"]'
"/snap/ruby/189/lib/ruby/gems/2.7.0/gems/bundler-2.1.4/lib:/snap/ruby/189/lib/ruby/2.7.0:/snap/ruby/189/lib/ruby/2.7.0/amd64"
```

Where should call `ENV.clear`?
In `ENV.replace` or caller of `ENV.replace`?
