Refactor backup_and_replace_hostname() into a flexible config modification tool
backup_and_replace_hostname() was doing three things: 1. Given config file in 'key=value' style, replace value for a specified key (HOSTNAME) 2. Backup original file and install a replacement 3. Restore original security context after editing We have several more places where parts of the functionality are needed, thus making two tools in ipapython.ipautil: 1. config_replace_variables(filepath, replacevars=dict(), appendvars=dict()) Replaces or appends values to specified keys, adding new key=value pairs if key was absent 2. backup_config_and_replace_variables(fstore, filepath, replacevars=dict(), appendvars=dict()) Backups config file and calls config_replace_variables() A caller must handle security context after using these two tools. In addition, as before, there is ipapython.services.backup_and_replace_hostname() that uses these common tools and restores security context after editing. The code will be used extensively for systemd integration for Fedora 16. Fixes: https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1871
