This series provides a way for config files to include other config
files in two ways:
1. From other files in the filesystem. This is implemented by patch 1
below, and is hopefully straightforward and uncontroversial. See
that patch for more rationale.
2. From blobs in the repo. This is implemented by patch 4, with
patches 2 and 3 providing the necessary refactoring. This
is one way of implementing the often asked-for "respect shared
config inside the repo" feature, but attempts to mitigate some of
the security concerns. The interface for using it safely is a bit
raw, but I think it's a sane building block, and somebody could
write a fancier shared-config updater on top of it if they wanted
to.
[1/4]: config: add include directive
