Issue DM-616: commons.config should always be managed as a global variable
Qserv configuration object (i.e. commons.config) used in admin and tests should be managed the same way a logger object is (cf. http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/2.7/Lib/logging/__init__.py). I.e. a function called config.getConfig("config-type") (returning an config occurence of a global dictionnary), should be used in order to ease retrieval of all configuration objects related to client, data, (and server?) anywhere in the admin/test python code.
