This adds the master config file options to the pillar, this means
that all of the config data on the master config is available via
pillar now. Fix#1886
When `salt-master` starts, it checks the soft and hard limits for max open files, it then raises it's process allowed max open files to the maximum if `max_open_files` is unset on the configuration file or to the set value.
Allow for an optional directive that allows the salt pki_dir
to be owned by any group that root is a member of, not just
the primary group listed in the passwd directory. This is
potentially insecure, but allows some limited access for
headless accounts to run salt without the need for sudo and
the config that goes along with that.

* Added the ability to configure the log levels for the console logger separate from the logfile logger. The log level provided from the cli script will override the console log level set on the configuration file but not the logfile logger setting, unless theres no setting for the logfile setting in which case it will be the same as the console log level.
* Added the ability to provide the logging formats for both the console and the logfile.
* Added the ability to provide the date format to be used.
* The module name formatting("%(name)s") now remembers the widest name, this will improve log readability.
* Also catch `KeyboardInterrupt`s while the minion is waiting to connect to the master and not just on `minion.tune_in()`.
All these new configuration settings are documented on the configuration file templates.
Range is a cluster based metadata store. It was used internally at
yahoo and recently open source. You can read about range here:
https://github.com/grierj/range/wiki/Introduction-to-Range-with-YAML-files
Range allows arbitrary grouping of hosts via clusters and the storage
of metadata along with them. Additionally there is a powerful DSL that
allows for set operations, regexes, and multilayer cluster referencing.
The implementation here runs the range query and reduces it to a list
style expression format, which means only the salt master needs to know
about range or have the range libraries installed.
