Bug Description

There should be a global per-user config file for zope.testing's test runner. For example

  # ~/.zope-test.conf
  [zope.testing]
  color = true # true, false or auto
  verbosity = 1
  progress = true # true, false or auto
  report-ndiff = true

Perhaps separating the settings is too difficult (both for the user to remember and for the implementer to do), so this would be enough:

  # ~/.zope-test.conf
  [zope.testing]
  defaults = -pvc1

Note that there should also be an option to --ignore-config-file, which must be used in all testrunner's functional tests.

This needs to be fixed in zope.testrunner, not zope.testing.
