PIP_NO_BUILD_ISOLATION behaves opposite to how it reads #5735

Description

@jakirkham

The *_NO_* environment variables are confusing and counterintuitive. It seems all of them are enabled by setting them to off, false, or 0. However to disable them one must set them to on, true, or 1. It seems like I'm in good company as this behavior has confused a good number of other people as well.
