Allow configuration file to specify which commands are available.

[bangpound]

Many users will not have apc and apcu enabled on the same servers. Symfony Console's \Symfony\Component\Console\Application::find method will attempt to find commands that match partial names but this cannot work when there are commands whose namespaces are subsets of other commands.

For example, when all extensions are enabled, it's not possible to abbreviate most of the commands in either apc or apcu namespace:

$ ./bin/cachetool a:k:f some-key --no-ansi
                                                       
  Command "a:k:f" is ambiguous.                        
  Did you mean one of these?                           
      apc:key:fetch  Shows the content of an APC key   
      apcu:key:fetch Shows the content of an APCu key  
                                                       

When the config file specifies which extensions to support, calling commands with abbreviations is possible:

extensions: [opcache, apcu]

$ ./bin/cachetool a:k:f some-key
APCu key=some-key has value='thing'

To avoid breaking backward compatibility, \CacheTool\Console\Config::__construct now uses array_replace to provide defaults when config properties aren't set in the $config argument.

How about just loading/enabling the commands conditionally depending on which extensions are loaded in the process? Then stuff that's useless would be hidden automatically.

@Seldaek I considered this, but the PHP executable that runs cachetool can be different from the PHP instance that it is connecting to. A cache extension that isn't available in /usr/bin/php might be the one I want to modify which is running on FPM on port 9000 mapped to localhost from a Docker container. Is that valid?

[Seldaek]

Yes I guess that makes sense
