These config options can be defined in ~/.mozbuild/machrc or topsrcdir/machrc.
Aliases work similar to the identically named option in an hgrc.
For example:
[alias]
browser-test = mochitest -f browser
mochitest = mochitest -f plain

Runtime configs have been implemented for awhile, but disabled. This patch
enables configuration. Config files will be loaded in the following order
(later files override earlier ones):
1a. $MACHRC
1b. $MOZBUILD_STATE_PATH/machrc (if $MACHRC is unset)
2. topsrcdir/machrc
3. CLI via --settings
Note: .machrc may be used instead of machrc if desired.

This adds a |mach settings locale-gen| subcommand to automatically generate locale
specific documentation for settings. It also refactors |mach settings-create| to
|mach settings| and moves |mach settings| to |mach settings -l|. Finally it performs
some misc cleanup mostly related to locales.

Some sections should support user-defined options. For example, in an [alias] section, the option names
are not well-defined, rather specified by the user. This patch allows user-defined option names for any
section that has a 'section.*' option defined. Even with 'section.*', option types are still well-defined.

Defining settings was a little complicated. First it required overriding a '_register_settings'
method, and then it required making N calls to a second 'register_setting' method within that.
This patch simplifies the process of defining settings by only requiring a
'config_settings' attribute. This attribute should be a list of tuples:
[
('<section>.<option>', '<type>', <default>, set(<choices)),
]
`default` and `choices` are optional. Alternatively, 'config_settings' can be a callable
that returns a list of tuples in the same format. This still allows for greater flexibility
for more advanced cases.

terminal.py had an ambiguous |import logging| that was importing
mach.logging from Sphinx. We fix it.
There was also a poorly formed link in the mach commands documentation.
We fix it.
