📝Bug Description
The conf.Env() function panics when passed a pointer to a map (e.g., *map[string]any ) instead of a direct map value.
However, from the code perspective, the pointer type is intended to be supported.

v := reflect.ValueOf(env)
d := deref.Value(v)

func Value(v reflect.Value) reflect.Value {
for v.Kind() == reflect.Ptr || v.Kind() == reflect.Interface {
if v.IsNil() {
return v
}
v = v.Elem()
}
return v

🔄 Steps to Reproduce
package main
import (
"github.com/expr-lang/expr"
)
func main() {
m := map[string]any{"foo": 42}
env := &m
_, err := expr.Compile("foo > 0", expr.Env(env))
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
}✅ Expected Behavior
The function should handle pointer-to-map types gracefully by properly dereferencing the pointer before performing map operations. 🎯
❌ Actual Behavior
panic: reflect: call of reflect.Value.Len on ptr to non-array Value

reflect.Value.lenNonSlice({0x1011f8ca0?, 0x140000a4378?, 0x1400009c998?})

🔍 Root Cause Analysis
In conf/env.go , lines 38-43, the code uses:
- v.Len() ❌ fails on pointer types
- v.MapKeys() ❌ fails on pointer types
- v.MapIndex(key) ❌ fails on pointer types
The fix is to use the dereferenced value d (from deref.Value(v) ) for these operations. 💡
I have a working implementation ready that addresses this issue. Would you like me to submit a PR for this fix?
