To facilitate this, I added a config.InjectEnvars() function that
emulates the envar mapping we were using with Kong. This still allows
all global config to be configured via envars automatically.
eg.
```
CACHEW_GIT_CLONE_FETCH_INTERVAL=10s cachewd
```
The flags now look like this:
```
~/dev/cachew $ cachewd --help
Usage: cachewd --config=PATH [flags]
Flags:
-h, --help Show context-sensitive help.
--schema Print the configuration file schema ($CACHEW_SCHEMA).
--config=PATH Configuration file path ($CACHEW_CONFIG).
```

We could also duplicate some common configuration in flags...like --log-level ... but that would be a bit of extra work. We'll see how we go.
