configitems: add a new config option to control new filenode functionality

This series is adding functionality where we can force create a new filenode for
some files on a merge-commit. This is meant to represent an explicit choice made
by user and hence distingusing the file in the merged commit with the file in
parent by creating a new filenode instead of using the parent one.

This introduces a experimental config option under which this functionality
will be hidden.
