feat: support HELMFILE_KUBE_CONTEXT env var for default kube context (#2593)

* feat: support HELMFILE_KUBE_CONTEXT env var for default kube context

Mirrors the existing HELMFILE_ENVIRONMENT pattern: the --kube-context
CLI flag takes precedence, falling back to HELMFILE_KUBE_CONTEXT when
unset.

Refs #1213.

* docs: mention HELMFILE_KUBE_CONTEXT in cli.md and templating.md
