Bug Description

Right now xtrabackup reads following parameters from config file
xtrabackup: innodb_data_file_path = ibdata1:100M:autoextend
xtrabackup: innodb_log_files_in_group = 2
xtrabackup: innodb_log_file_size = 8589934592
+ datadir.

We need to make xtrabackup reading these from mysql connection,
parsing SHOW GLOBAL VARIABLES.
We establish connection to MySQL anyway.

This is more a feature request, but we may need it soon.
