Add ConfigFilter wrapper class

Implements blueprint cfg-filter-view

At the moment, if a module requires a configuration option from another
module, we do:

  CONF.import_opt('source.module', 'option_name')

but, in fact, all options from the imported module are available for
use.

The new ConfigFilter class makes it possible to enforce which options
are available within a module e.g. with

  CONF = cfgfilter.ConfigFilter(cfg.CONF)
  CONF.import_opt('foo', 'source.module')
  CONF.register_opt(StrOpt('bar'))

then the foo and bar options would be the only options available via
this CONF object while still being available via the global cfg.CONF
object.
