Evan Mattson e244dad208 Python: If no env_file is configured then default to relative .env file (#6754)
### 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.

### 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.
