Outputs shell-specific PATH export so users can add a single line to their shell config: eval "$(pv env)" Detects zsh/bash (export PATH=...) vs fish (fish_add_path). Future-proof: if pv adds more PATH entries, pv env picks them up automatically without users re-editing their shell config. Updates PrintPathInstructions to reference pv env instead of hardcoded export lines.

Why
Future-proof PATH management. If pv adds more directories to PATH later (new tools, new shim locations),
pv envpicks them up automatically -- users don't need to re-edit their shell config.Changes
