I've updated the telemetry docs page. My editor spotted 2 spelling errors in the file, so I added another commit fixing those as well, if you don't mind. |

With the current model described at https://devpod.sh/docs/other-topics/telemetry#telemetry-opt-out-process, a CLI user wanting to opt out of telemetry completely needs to remember to set the TELEMTRY option for every new context.
This PR adds an additional environment variable as a method to disable telemetry regardless of the current context. This is a common approach among open-sourced CLI programs.
