    tools/oxenstored: validate config file before live update
    
    The configuration file can contain typos or various errors that could 
prevent
    live update from succeeding (e.g. a flag only valid on a different version).
    Unknown entries in the config file would be ignored on startup normally,
    add a strict --config-test that live-update can use to check that the 
config file
    is valid *for the new binary*.
    
    For compatibility with running old code during live update recognize
    --live --help as an equivalent to --config-test.
