### Motivation and Context We'd like to improve the handling of the .env file related to Pydantic Settings. If Environment variables aren't found, it's possible to fall back on reading the values from a .env file. <!-- Thank you for your contribution to the semantic-kernel repo! Please help reviewers and future users, providing the following information: 1. Why is this change required? 2. What problem does it solve? 3. What scenario does it contribute to? 4. If it fixes an open issue, please link to the issue here. --> ### Description Previous to this PR, that is done by specifying the .env file path. Now, if the env_file is not specified, we will default to reading from the relative ".env" file in the cwd. <!-- Describe your changes, the overall approach, the underlying design.
