Bug Description

We should add an option to specify exactly where we should read the config file from.

This functionality is already built, it's just not exposed as a command-line option.

Hi!

This is actually already in the use-paste-deploy branch, which uses the Swift model of requiring a configuration file as the first argument when starting a server program, as demonstrated below:

(.glance-venv)jpipes@serialcoder:~/repos/glance/use-paste-deploy$ ./bin/glance-api
ERROR: Unable to locate any configuration file. Cannot load application glance-api
(.glance-venv)jpipes@serialcoder:~/repos/glance/use-paste-deploy$ ./bin/glance-api etc/glance.cnf.sample

Setting to low since all programs now take as an argument the configuration file, so adding --config-file as a CLI option is really just a nice-to-have
