In last round, I said I'd go with Ævar's scheme for iterating over
configs. But when looking at the test output I decided that I wanted
a shorter label for each config rather than the actual command line to
make hte output more readable.

So here I split the 'git $cfg' invocation off of the actual command
being executed, since it wasn't clear to me the best way to structure
this shell script.
The overall effect I want to achieve is to be able to iterate over
every config for each test case so that the different configs of the
same test appear next to each other in the output.

I initially tried not substituting the $cfg variable in a test like this:
'git $cfg add -- files'
And then using eval in test_perf_fsync_cfgs to get the variable
substitution to happen later.
Is there a better way to write this?
Thanks,
Neeraj
