Pass the augmented environment to the hook scripts.

The call signature for the hook scripts was changed by adding a third
parameter which is a dictionary containing the environment variables copied
from ``os.environ`` and augmented with the environment overrides from the
part configuration.

Existing hook scripts that accept only two arguments continue to work but
reading ``os.environ`` directly will not contain the overridden values.
