Modified files:
	liblvm         : .exported_symbols lvm.h lvm_base.c 

Log message:
	Add lvm_config_override - allow caller to override config, similar to --config.
	
	Allowing the caller to override the LVM configuration with an API will
	enable them to use things such as device filters.
	While very flexible, there is some danger to this API in that it will
	make it harder to debug setups that have a changing config and deduce
	what might have happened.  At some point we may want to limit the scope
	of this API but for now it is as open as the --config option to lvm commands.
	
	Update exported symbols.  When I renamed lvm_reload_config to lvm_config_reload
	I forgot to rename so I renamed that one here.
	
	This I believe is the last liblvm API for now.  ;-)
