NACK - After reviewing this patchset, we decided that those changes are not acceptable in current form.
New section allocation scheme doesn't add much value. Also new implementation of rte_cfgfile_entry with
static string for name and dynamic for value may cause confusion. We will go back to cfgfile improvements in 2.2.
