Configuration options can come from different sources. Currently,
there is only support for reading them from a flat file, but it might
make sense to read it from a database at some point.
Move the parsing code into src/config_file.c and create an include
file include/git2/config_backend.h to allow for other backends to be
developed.

Config variables should be interpreted at run-time, as we don't know if a
zero means false or zero, or if yes means true or "yes".
As a variable has no intrinsic type, git_cvtype is gone and the public
API takes care of enforcing a few rules.

These functions can be used to query or modify the variables in a
given configuration. No sanity checking is done on the variable names.
This is mostly meant as an API preview.
