despite the name, it seems that only kitty uses that environment
variable. (verified also with debian codesearch)

a bit sad that this is not even mentioned in the manpage.
in theory the best place to document this would be the kitty port, but
since we're already documenting the other toolkit-dependent env vars in
the fcitx readme adding a note about kitty seems the easier and less
intrusive option. (even thought patching kitty' manpage and upstreaming
the diff is also an option.)
