+ * This section manages ini config files, like netdata.conf and stream.conf
+ *
+ * It is organized like this:
+ *
+ * struct config (i.e. netdata.conf or stream.conf)
+ * .sections = a linked list of struct section
+ * .mutex = a mutex to protect the above linked list due to multi-threading
+ * .index = an AVL tree of struct section
+ *
+ * struct section (i.e. [global] or [health] of netdata.conf)
+ * .value = a linked list of struct config_option
+ * .mutex = a mutex to protect the above linked list due to multi-threading
+ * .value_index = an AVL tree of struct config_option
+ *
+ * struct config_option (ie. a name-value pair for each ini file option)
+ *
+ * The following operations on name-value options are supported:
+ * SET to set the value of an option
+ * SET DEFAULT to set the value and the default value of an option
+ * GET to get the value of an option
+ * EXISTS to check if an option exists
+ * MOVE to move an option from a section to another section, and/or rename it
+ *
+ * GET and SET operations are provided for the following data types:
+ * STRING
+ * NUMBER (long long)
+ * FLOAT (long double)
+ * BOOLEAN (false, true)
+ * BOOLEAN ONDEMAND (false, true, auto)
+ *
+ * GET and SET operations create struct config_option, if it is not already present.
+ * This allows netdata to run even without netdata.conf and stream.conf. The internal
+ * defaults are used to create the structure that should exist in the ini file and the config
+ * file can be downloaded from the server.
+ *
+ * Also 2 operations are supported for the whole config file:
+ *
+ * LOAD To load the ini file from disk
+ * GENERATE To generate the ini file (this is used to download the ini file from the server)
+ *
+ * For each option (name-value pair), the system maintains 4 flags:
+ * LOADED to indicate that the value has been loaded from the file
+ * USED to indicate that netdata used the value
+ * CHANGED to indicate that the value has been changed from the loaded value or the internal default value
+ * CHECKED is used internally for optimization (to avoid an strcmp() every time GET is called).
+ *
+ * TODO:
+ * 1. The linked lists and the mutexes can be removed and the AVL trees can become DICTIONARY.
+ * This part of the code was written before we add traversal to AVL.
+ *
+ * 2. High level data types could be supported, to simplify the rest of the code:
+ * MULTIPLE CHOICE to let the user select one of the supported keywords
+ * this would allow users see in comments the available options
+ *
+ * SIMPLE PATTERN to let the user define netdata SIMPLE PATTERNS
+ *
+ * 3. Sorting of options should be supported.
+ * Today, when the ini file is downloaded from the server, the options are shown in the order
+ * they appear in the linked list (the order they were added, listing changed options first).
+ * If we remove the linked list, the order they appear in the AVL tree will be used (which is
+ * random due to simple_hash()).
+ * Ideally, we support sorting of options when generating the ini file.
+ *
+ * 4. There is no free() operation. So, memory is freed on netdata exit.
+ *
+ * 5. Avoid memory fragmentation
+ * Since entries are created from multiple threads and a lot of allocations are required
+ * for each config_option, fragmentation can be a problem for IoT.
+ *
+ * 6. Although this way of managing options is quite flexible and dynamic, it wastes memory
+ * for the names of the options. Since most of the option names are static, we could provide
+ * a method to allocate only the dynamic option names.
