The package we used to load config in the past, `node-config`, would default to `development`. https://github.com/node-config/node-config/blob/f54b41990095c2b340ae129dfd8f623da1dfa20d/lib/config.js#L561 #347

This is what was used prior to #347. It was a nice idea motivated to drop a dependency that was confusing. It was just never followed through and was underestimated how much disruption it would cause. It was also believed that the library would mean there could only ever be one global copy of the config, It was followed up by: #369 #357 #429 https://github.com/matrix-org/mjolnir/pull/397/files #365 For simplicity sake I am reinstating the library. The practice of loading default.yaml by default is also dangerous and has led to issues multiple times in #mjolnir:matrix.org. It is a sample and not a default. In a following commit I will be adding the ability to specify the config to use from the cli.

* Use the npm package `config` to load the config. This is what was used prior to #347. It was a nice idea motivated to drop a dependency that was confusing.
