[PATCH v16 RESEND 5/8] perf config: Add 'get' functionality

[Taeung Song]

This patch consists of functions
which can get specific config variables.
For the syntax examples,

    perf config [<file-option>] [section.name ...]

    display key-value pairs of specific config variables
    # perf config report.queue-size report.children

In addition, the functionality can work with --verbose option
to show the config description, i.e.

    # perf config -v report.queue-size
