We can read them back just when they are needed.

PKG_INSTALL_MASK should be handled in the EbuildPhase class when
self.phase is "package". In order to preserve behavior, EbuildPhase will
have to create a temporary copy of ${D} and apply PKG_INSTALL_MASK to
it, for __dyn_package to use.

INSTALL_MASK should be handled in the dblink treewalk method like it is now.

The config class only needs to be involved if we want to expose some API
related to {PKG,}INSTALL_MASK there, but the config class is bloated
enough as it is so it's better to expose a helper class like the
ConfigProtect class.
