Title: Allow to pass multiline ENV-like arguments

It would be very useful if rake would allow the user to pass multiline arguments, that could be parsed inside the task, for example:

$ rake some:task YAML_ARGS='
---
:a: foo
:b: bar
'

The only needed change is adding the `m` flag to the RegExp that parses the ARGV.
