39f3cd9558 test: rework main script
The issue about `config.txt` files is that they contains paths:
* to configuration files, which are in the source tree
* to the dynamic plugins, which are in the build tree

Solution:
* copy all configuration files into the build tree
* all those paths are about the build tree
* tests run from the build tree, no from the source tree anymore

d72a760ac3 New API for library configuration
This is the first step into providing (more) configuration options in nDPI.

The idea is to have a simple way to configure (most of) nDPI: only one
function (`ndpi_set_config()`) to set any configuration parameters
(in the present or on in the future) and we try to keep this function
prototype as agnostic as possible.

You can configure the library:
* via API, using `ndpi_set_config()`
* via a configuration file, in a text format

This way, anytime we need to add a new configuration parameter:
* we don't need to add two public functions (a getter and a setter)
* we don't break API/ABI compatibility of the library; even changing
the parameter type (from integer to a list of integer, for example)
doesn't break the compatibility.

The complete list of configuration options is provided in
`doc/configuration_parameters.md`.

As a first example, two configuration knobs are provided:
* the ability to enable/disable the extraction of the sha1 fingerprint of
the TLS certificates.
* the upper limit on the number of packets per flow that will be subject
to inspection
