Auto merge of rust-lang#11944 - workingjubilee:env-lookup-for-cargo, r=Jarcho

Check $CARGO before $PATH

Currently, clippy will ignore $CARGO when spawning cargo commands, which can be problematic for `cargo clippy` and interop with other tools. This commit induces clippy to respect $CARGO in every case it seems likely to matter.

Fixes:
- rust-lang#11943

changelog: clippy now respects setting the `CARGO` environment variable
