Set undefined env variables using CLI arguments

Both `DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE` and `DJANGO_CONFIGURATION` are required for `django.configurations.importer` to install, else it throws an exception.
If the `importer` is not installed, `django.setup()` fails on `configure_logging(settings.LOGGING_CONFIG, settings.LOGGING)` when trying to access uninitialized settings.

fixes pylint-dev#309 (pylint-dev#309 (comment))
fixes pylint-dev#325
