#1414888 — [BUGFIX][PATCH v6 1/9] perf config: Fix the problem of abnormal termination at perf_parse_file()

If a config file has wrong key-value pairs, perf process
will be forcibly terminated by die() at perf_parse_file()
called by perf_config() so terminal setting can be crushed
because of unusual termination.

For example,

If user config file has a wrong value 'red;default'
instead of a normal value like 'red, default' for a key 'colors.top',

    # cat ~/.perfconfig
    [colors]
        medium = red;default # wrong value

and if running sub-command 'top',

    # perf top

perf process is dead by force and terminal setting is broken
with a messge like below.

    Fatal: bad config file line 2 in /root/.perfconfig

So fix it.
If perf_config() can return on failure without calling die()
at perf_parse_file(), this problem can be solved.
And if a config file has wrong values, show the error message
and then use default config values instead of wrong config values.

perf config: Fix abnormal termination at perf_parse_file()

If a config file has wrong key-value pairs, the perf process will be
forcibly terminated by die() at perf_parse_file() called by
perf_config() so terminal settings can be crushed because of unusual
termination.

For example:

If user config file has a wrong value 'red;default' instead of a normal
value like 'red, default' for a key 'colors.top',

    # cat ~/.perfconfig
    [colors]
        medium = red;default # wrong value

and if running sub-command 'top',

    # perf top

perf process is dead by force and terminal setting is broken
with a messge like below.

    Fatal: bad config file line 2 in /root/.perfconfig

So fix it.
If perf_config() can return on failure without calling die()
at perf_parse_file(), this problem can be solved.
And if a config file has wrong values, show the error message
and then use default config values instead of wrong config values.
