The external storage interfaces (Storage, StorageFileRead, etc.) have been stable for a while, but internally they were calling the posix driver functions directly.
Create driver interfaces for storage, fileRead, and fileWrite and remove all references to the posix driver outside storage/driver/posix (with the exception of a direct call to pathRemove() in Perl LibC).
Posix is still the only available driver so more adjustment may be needed, but this should represent the bulk of the changes.
common/harnessLog was not ideally suited for general testing and made all the tests quite awkward. Instead, move all code used to test the common/log module into the logTest module and repurpose common/harnessLog to do log expect testing for all other tests in a cleaner way.
Add a few exceptions for config testing since the log levels are reset by default in config/parse.
pgBackRest currently has no way to request new credentials so the entire command (e.g. backup, restore) must complete before the credentials expire.

Configuration files are loaded from the directory specified by the --config-include-path option.
Add --config-path option for overriding the default base path of the --config and --config-include-path option.

Mainly this helps with unit tests that need to do log expect testing. Add harnessCfgLoad() test function, which allows a new config to be loaded for unit testing without resetting log functions, opening a log file, or taking locks.
Now only two types of locks can be taken: archive and backup. Most commands use one or the other but the stanza-* commands acquire both locks. This provides better protection than the old command-based locking scheme.
This implementation should be faster because it does not stat each file. It simply assumes that most directory entries are files so attempts an unlink() first. If the entry is reported by error codes to be a directory then it attempts an rmdir().
db-path was the only option with a hint so the feature seemed wasteful. All missing stanza options now output the same hint without needing configuration.
