   @andygrove @HaoYang670 Thank you for comments. 
   I like the idea to return `Result<T>` from all `get` methods.
   however there are some things to discuss.
   - if they key doesn't exist should we return `Err` or default value? 
   - if the types doesn't match but castable on `get`, should we fail or cast 
if possible? cast on set perhaps not good idea as user that sets configs 
usually knows the type to put to the config store and can select correct set 
method, whereas reader has no idea what the type by selected key is in the 
config. Thus I think cast on read is more useful.
