bug:
Fixed LoadConfig() behaviour in setting the %CONFIG hash to load values.
It was very broken for multiple files.

feature:
Added ability to append arguments to punch statistics allowing multiple calls
to the same punch with a single call. Before, a call like "load(5);load(15)" would
only return a single "load" value with load(15) overwriting the load(5) return value
since they had the same statistic name.

  <punch>
  ...
  appendargs => true
  ...
  </punch>

feature:
It's now possible for a punch to populate a number of statistics, rather than just one.
If the punch returns a value which is a list concatenated with a delimiter, e.g.

  1:2:3:4

then each value can be assigned to as statistic using

  namegroup = stat1,stat2,stat3,stat4
  valuedelim = :

This may be useful if the punch takes time to compute the list of values and computing 
one item takes as long as computing the whole list (e.g. user/nice/sys/idle CPU utilization
requires a few seconds to collect reliable statistics and you get all four values at once)
