Gorka Eguileor 199ebd4f5a Fix configuration options
When fixing bug #1854188 (Change-ID:
I62e992804a3ae6aa0b4aa4f883807783197d4b33) we broke configuration
options, because now we cannot pass configuration options from the
DEFAULT section, and some ListOpt don't work because cinderlib was
incorrectly expecting all these options to have bounds=True, but some
don't define it and default to False.

Most of the "crazy" code we currently have around oslo config is because
we wanted to support drivers that add configuration options on runtime
and reload the configuration.

This made sense when cinderlib was not an OpenStack official project,
but now that it is it makes more sense to force Cinder drivers to do the
right thing.

Aligned with this, this patch removes all the faking of the cinder.conf
file as a StringIO object, and simply sets things in the configuration
object that is passed to the drivers, which is the only thing they
should be using.

This will make cinderlib code more robust, even if some drivers will now
need to be modified to work with cinderlib.

We are validating known configuration options and ignoring unknown ones,
like Cinder does.

The NetApp driver was one of the drivers that would get broken, but
since I have access to it and we can make a very small and targeted
workaround to avoid breaking it, we do it as well.

Closes-Bug: #1856556
