Add new osmo-config-merge utility
This utility allows you to merge an incremental config "patch" into an osmocom-style config file. The patch file follows the same syntax as the original config file. It works by appending the leaf nodes of the patch file to the respective nodes of the input config file. This process allows configuration file changes/updates to be performed in a more stable/reliable way than by means of [unified] diff files, as they break every time the context lines break. osmo-config-merge doesn't suffer from this problem, as it understands the tree-like nature of VTY config files. NITE: This only works with configuration files that have proper indenting, i.e. every level in the hierarchy must be indented excatly one character, not multiple.
