+Description: Add byteb4rb1e.utils.config: INI-backed config dataclasses where a
+             dataclass is the single source of truth for settings, with three
+             layers (field defaults, INI file sections, CLI overrides). Includes
+             INI loading/writing (load_ini, ensure_ini, ensure_ini_multi,
+             format_section), per-flag CLI integration (add_config_arguments,
+             apply_cli_overrides), dotted-path overrides via a unified --config
+             KEY=VALUE flag (apply_overrides, format_help), and the companion
+             argparse KeyValueAction (byteb4rb1e.utils.argparse.actions) that
+             accumulates KEY=VALUE pairs into a dict.
