I thought about this some more, and I'm not sure I like adding an option
to the constructor. This will break API. Perhaps a better long-term
solution would be to leave the constructor as-is, and add properties to
the class instead.

Environment environment = new Environment("/etc/X11/gtest-dummy.conf");
environment->set_log_file("./MyXorg.log");
AddGlobalTestEnvironment(environment);

Before we have many users, perhaps we should convert all these
constructor parameters to properties?
