994690 - Refactor config loader to use promises and add unit tests to it

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::Contacts, defect)

Description

[Jose Manuel Cantera]

utils.config.load seems to have an old and buggy implementation. We have to re-implement using promises and a set of unit tests to it

patch that includes unit tests, reimplements config loader by using promises and a simpler approach, use it throughout the code. also fixes an associated race condition in the fb_init.js code
