qga: allow configuration file path via the cli
Allowing the user to set the QGA_CONF environment variable to change
the default configuration file path is very unusual practice, made
more obscure since this ability is not documented.
This introduces the more normal '-c PATH' / '--config=PATH' command
line argument approach. This requires that we parse the comamnd line
twice, since we want the command line arguments to take priority over
the configuration file settings in general.
