#24642: cannot use TOR_PT_EXIT_ON_STDIN_CLOSE with meek-client-torbrowser

----------------------------------+-----------------
I am using meek built from the 0.28 tag on macOS.
If I add TOR_PT_EXIT_ON_STDIN_CLOSE=1 to the environment and start meek-
client-torbrowser, the meek-client process that is started exits
immediately. It generates this message on its way out:
synthesizing SIGTERM because of stdin close
I think this happens because meek-client-torbrowser does not attach stdin
to anything when starting meek-client.
I am not sure how best to fix this. One approach would be for meek-client-
torbrowser to remove TOR_PT_EXIT_ON_STDIN_CLOSE=1 from the environmnt
before starting meek-client (since meek-client-torbrowser already handles
TOR_PT_EXIT_ON_STDIN_CLOSE=1 on its own).
