Make sure people keep their old settings so they will be migrated to the database.

Refs #2166

(I have a diff for master as well. Once this is merged I will commit it.)

@bernd bernd added this to the 2.0.1 milestone May 2, 2016

The old settings from the `graylog.conf` or `/etc/graylog/server/server.conf` will be migrated to the database.

**WARNING:** When you upgrade from a 1.x version and you modified any rotation/retention settings, please make sure you **KEEP** your old settings in the config file so the migration process will add your old settings to the database! Otherwise the retention process will use the default settings and might remove a lot of indices.
