We use oslo.config for configuration files, so adding oslo. I think
there is already BP/bug open for this somewhere not sure where though.

Title:
  Nova should conduct syntax checking on startup

Status in Oslo - a Library of Common OpenStack Code:
  New

Bug description:
  It would be nice if Nova validated all syntax on startup. This could
  solve a few problems:

  * Problems with misconfiguration due to arguments in the wrong section (ex. [DEFAULT] vs. [database])
  * Problems with misconfiguration due to incorrectly typed variable name (ex. rabbit_userid vs. rabbit-userid)

  I'm sure there are other issues it would solve, but these are the
  first which come to mind. When a configuration file isn't right, logs
  don't always give an obvious response. My hope is any errors would be
  clearly explained.
