config: implement config snapshotting
In order to have consistent views of the config files for remotes,
submodules et al. and a configuration that represents what is currently
stored on-disk, we need a way to provide a view of the configuration
that does not change.
The goal here is to provide the snapshotting part by creating a
read-only copy of the state of the configuration at a particular point
in time, which does not change when a repository's main config changes.
