Config load

Options could be set by several ways (with this order if one option exist several times):

1. Load all config files founded by sorted(os.listdir()) when --autodetect-conf is enabled
    Find all *.ini or *.cfg files and read them by ConfigParser
2. Load --config-file file
3. Options from command-line

In config files options could be stored in several sections (with this order if one option exist several times):

1. pep8
2. flake8
3. autopep8
4. autopep8_quotes

Example

After running:

$ autopep8_quotes --in-place example.py

this code

    x = "abc"
    y = 'hello'

gets formatted into this

    x = "abc"
    y = "hello"

Limitations

1. Not all strings could be transformed in right way. If you find such, please send it to me.
2. String checked with ast.literal_eval() which has limitations. Known issues: 2.1. f-string couldn't be checked perfect, so check without prefix at all.
3. String with prefix r"" didn't replace escaped quotes.
