thisk4geo.sh redefines K4GEO environment variable

[BrieucF]

Is it possible to have the script thisk4geo.sh redefining the $K4GEO environment variable?

Hi @BrieucF
I see that thisk4geo.sh does not (yet) set K4GEO ... and this is done by k4_local_repo inside k4geo instead. Is this request still relevant or somehow superseded by k4_local_repo?

[BrieucF]

Yes, with k4_local_repo this became less needed but I think it still makes sense to have thisk4geo.sh setting K4GEO (and LCGEO for consistency)

In this case this is coming from DD4hep: https://github.com/key4hep/k4geo/blob/main/CMakeLists.txt#L152 so it's not completely trivial to do, while maintaining the generic script that DD4hep creates and installs.
