This is necessary for the U-boot -> EFI -> GRUB integration to be
complete as many boards embedd the U-Boot binary at the start
of the SD/eMMC a.k.a boot-gap.
When MENDER_COPY_BOOT_GAP is enabled, it will be copied from the
input disk image to the output ".sdimg"

Current logic actually fails when no '-c/--config' options are provided, with this error:
$ MENDER_ARTIFACT_NAME="test-1" ./mender-convert --disk-image input/Armbian_5.95_Tinkerboard_Debian_buster_next_4.19.69_minimal.img

2019-10-02 12:46:39 [INFO] [mender-convert-extract] Using configuration file: configs/mender_convert_config
2019-10-02 12:46:39 [INFO] [mender-convert-extract] Using configuration file: ''
modules/config.sh: line 28: '': No such file or directory
The 'configs' array is actually not empty when passed to modules/config.sh
as it will contain "''", which will be translated as a array element and
hence the above failure.
This commit ensures that we set a valid default value to 'configs',
which is the 'mender_convert_config'. This is moved from modules/config.sh,
to the calling scripts that define the array of configs.
Fixes: 9b944615a8 ("configs: Support multiple config files on command line.")

The current support for this fails due to incorrect use
of bash arrays.
Also, use the printf '%q' formatting code to add proper quotes
to the config file names to ensure that it works properly
with spaces in the file names.

Changelog: Title
The goals of the re-write was to achieve the following:
1. It should be easy to extend the tool to support other boards or distributions
2. We should not compile code in the tool (rely on binaries built elsewhere)
compiling code increases complexity, due to requirement of toolchains etc.
3. The tool shall not be designed around specific hardware/platform types
- This is the case today with the usage of --device-type flag
4 The tool should be to convert images without knowing anything about the hardware/platform
relates to above 3.
5. Configuration interface should be simplified
- command line flags -> configuration files
6. Platform specific code shall be provided trough “hooks”, and are not part of the “core” mender-convert code
7. It shall be easy to extend functionality
- support for rootfs overlay to inject user applications/configurations
- ability to override how the Mender Artifact is generated (to be able to sign and include state-scripts)
8. Code structure should be modular
- Eases Maintenance and possibility of making isolated changes
