HaNdTriX d3f1fa630e Rewrite with-dotenv example (#4924) 
## Issue

I decided to rewrite the [with-dotenv](https://github.com/zeit/next.js/tree/canary/examples/with-dotenv) using [dotenv-webpack](https://github.com/mrsteele/dotenv-webpack) example because:

- changes doesn't get applied  (#4748, brysgo/babel-plugin-inline-dotenv#13)
- the production mode doesn't work at all
- this approach has already been used in the [examples/relay-modern](9320d9f006/examples/with-relay-modern/next.config.js)
- it is [documented](https://webpack.js.org/plugins/environment-plugin/#dotenvplugin) by webpack

## Alternatives

* remove/deprecate example
* fix babel-plugin-inline-dotenv

The idea behind the example

This example shows how to inline env vars.

Please note:

  • It is a bad practice to commit env vars to a repository. Thats why you should normally gitignore your .env file.
  • As soon as you are using an env var in your code it will be publicly available and exposed to the client.
  • If you want to have more control of what is exposed to the client check out tusbar/next-runtime-dotenv.
  • Env vars are set (inlined) at build time. If you need to configure your app on rutime check out examples/with-universal-configuration-runtime
