Trove/use-datastore-version-when-considering-configs

Description

Trove currently can use different config files for each datastore, but uses the same configs for each datastore version. This blueprint is to add the tiny bit of functionality to allow an operator to optionally use different configs each datastore version.

Justification/Benefits

As versions of a datastore change, it makes sense to allow operators to optionally offer different config values for each version.

Impacts

Configuration

Today a template is loaded by looking in the path "{manager}/config.template".format(manager=datastore.manager). We can allow for this new functionality by creating instead a list option in the configs which contains different name patterns to look for. Each one will be tried in order to see if there's a match. I propose these defaults:

   ['{manager}/{version}/{flavor_ram}.config.template',
    '{manager}/{version}/config.template',
    '{manager}/config.template']
