Title: VOLDEMORT_CONFIG_DIR environment variable introduced

Currently, the properties for the voldemort server are loaded from -

VOLDEMORT_HOME/config/server.properties .

When it comes to testing different versions of the (voldemort) software and saving/storing configs independently, providing another environment variable - VOLDEMORT_CONFIG_DIR , to refer to the configuration directory , will help in upgradation / changing installation of voldemort .

The new environment variable is completely optional.

If not set, it will reduce to the default behavior as now , which is:

config_dir (metadata_directory) = voldemort_home + file.separator + 'config' .

Scripts changed accordingly to take in the new directory as output as well.
If not, it picks up the default as mentioned above ( as it exists before ( $voldemort_home/config ) ) .
