This change adds client support for setting custom configuration file paths, allowing users and developers to place their settings file wherever they want. All client demo scripts have been updated to support a '-s' flag that can be used to set the configuration file for the demo. Client unit tests have also been updated to include this change.

PyKMIP is a Python implementation of the Key Management Interoperability
Protocol (KMIP), an `OASIS`_ communication standard for the management of
objects stored and maintained by key management systems. KMIP defines how key
management operations and operation data should be encoded and communicated
between client and server applications. Supported operations include the full
`CRUD`_ key management lifecycle, including operations for managing object
metadata and for conducting cryptographic operations. Supported object types
include:
* symmetric/asymmetric encryption keys
* passwords/passphrases
* certificates
* opaque data blobs, and more
For more information on KMIP, check out the `OASIS KMIP Technical Committee`_
and the `OASIS KMIP Documentation`_.
