simplify configuration file loading
-----------------------------------

                 Key: CASSANDRA-971
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-971
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Core
            Reporter: Jonathan Ellis
            Assignee: Jonathan Ellis
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 0.7


Currently we can load the configuration file from (a) a full path specified by 
-Dstorage-config, or (b) "storage.conf.xml" located anywhere on the classpath 
(filename may not be changed).

I think we should figure out what The Right Thing is to do here, and then do 
it, instead of trying multiple guesses in an effort to prevent ... what?

ISTM that the java idiom here is, look for a default filename on the classpath, 
and allow customizing that name w/ a system property, but when taking the 
property ONLY the filename is customized, not the full path.  This is what 
log4j does, for instance.
