Move shared config types to the common repo

[shubheksha]

In PR #3629, we moved shared types to util/config but since they're used across the project we should move Secret, TLSConfig, HTTPClientConfig, etc., to common.

IIUC everything's already present in common (see common/config/http_config.go). Or am I missing something?

[brian-brazil]

That has drifted a bit, so needs to be all brought up to date. Note that the blackbox exporter requires non-persistent connections.

@shubheksha unless you plan to do it, I can give it a try.

[krasi-georgiev]

I would like to discuss an idea for the config handling in general.
will ping you when the WIP PR is ready

[shubheksha]

@simonpasquier Picking this up!

[shubheksha]

@brian-brazil, @simonpasquier is right. I compared the two files, everything is already present in common. Only this repo needs to be switched over to use common.
