Validate your environment variables with Zod

Validate your environment variables with Zod! process.env by default does not automatically pick up the environment variables that you define. It also can't validate if all the required variables are set, so you'll get an error during runtime if they're not. We can fix that by using Zod to create a schema of our env variables and validate process.env against it. Exporting the schema will also provide us with the correct types, so we won't mistype an environment variable ever again.
