Add config.h config.def.h capabilities

[Deleted user]

I recently discovered the method of copying config.def.h to config.h and editing the latter for making keybindings and other settings in the language the application was programmed in. I really enjoy this method, and I really enjoy this image viewer, so I would love if they could be combined.

I am not suggesting completely discarding the config file. I propose that a config.def.h be added to the project along with a way to turn off scanning the config file for settings (to make the application run faster).

I don't know what the best method for turning off the config file is, but I suppose it's one of these:

• Use the preprocessor (#def scan_config)
• Use a C variable (bool scan_config)
• Use a makefile instruction (make noconfig install)

I see that this application uses meson, which I don't know anything about. So for the last option (with the makefile) it would be whatever the meson equivalent is.

I'm glad you enjoy using imv, but I'm afraid I don't intend to support this configuration approach upstream. Hopefully I'm a lazy enough maintainer that managing a fork with your config.h isn't too onerous :)
