isolated app configuration

[fschade]

Description

Introduce a new feature which allows configuring applications individually instead of using the global apps.yaml file.
With that, each application can have its own configuration file, which will be loaded by the WEB service.

The local configuration has the highest priority and will override the global configuration.
The Following order of precedence is used: local.config > global.config > manifest.config.

Besides the configuration, the application now be disabled by setting the disabled field to true in one of the configuration files.

APP/manifest.json

{
  "entrypoint": "index.js",
  "config": {
    "from_manifest": 1,
    "bar": 1
  }
}

apps.yaml

bar:
  config:
    from_global: 1
    bar: 2

APP/config.json

{
  "config": {
    "from_local": 1,
    "bar": 3
  }
}

    {
      "id": "bar",
      "path": "/assets/apps/bar/index.js",

        "bar": 3,
        "from_global": 1,
