Let's keep it simple and backward compatible.

Change new config to ports but also add old port setting to this list.
Something like:

config_get ports "${section}" Ports
config_get port "${section}" Port
ports="$port $ports"

Perfect of course would be a log message telling deprecation of port
setting in favor for ports.
