implement GETCONFIG and SETCONFIG
Changed protocol spec to make SETCONFIG only store it persistently when run during INITREMOTE. I see no reason to support storing it persistently at other times, and doing so would unnecessarily complicate the code. Also, letting that be done would probably result in use for storing data that doesn't really belong there, and special remote authors who don't understand how the union merging works would probably be surprised the results.

Sets one of the special remote's configuration settings. These settings

are stored in the git-annex branch, so will be available if the same

special remote is used elsewhere.

Sets one of the special remote's configuration settings.

Normally this is sent during INITREMOTE, which allows these settings
|
||||
to be stored in the git-annex branch, so will be available if the same
|
||||
special remote is used elsewhere. (If sent after INITREMOTE, the changed
|

configuration will only be available while the remote is running.)

* `GETCONFIG Setting`
|

Gets one of the special remote's configuration settings.

(git-annex replies with VALUE followed by the value.)
|
||||
Gets one of the special remote's configuration settings, which can have
|
||||
been passed by the user when running `git annex initremote`, or
|
||||
can have been set by a previous SETCONFIG. Can be run at any time.
|
||||
(git-annex replies with VALUE followed by the value. If the setting is
|
||||
not set, the value will be empty.)
|
||||
* `SETSTATE Key Value`
|
||||
git-annex can store state in the git-annex branch on a
|
||||
per-special-remote, per-key basis. This sets that state.
