Hi ddunbar, danalbert, jroelofs,
This patch was inspired by the following use case when testing libc++:
* The `lit.site.cfg` is in build-libcxx/test/lit.site.cfg
* Your working out of libcxx/test
Currently the only solution is to copy or symlink the generated `lit.site.cfg` into the source tree and then teach your VCS to ignore it. This patch allows the user to manually specify configuration files to load. It works by pre-loading the suite configuration file cache. The configuration files can be specified one of two ways:
* using the `--config` command line parameter
* using the `LIT_CONFIG` environment variable.
The configuration files specified using `--config` are loaded before the ones in `LIT_CONFIG`. configuration files with the same path or the same test source path are not loaded twice.
@ddunbar If you disagree with this direction please let me know.
