Created by: mbway

This adds the feature to discard a config file that was generated by another version of solaar. This makes sense for both backwards incompatibility (config generated by a newer version may break an older version) as well as the problem I was having which is that newer versions may have better support for a device.

Specifically, I installed solaar the other day from the arch repos and my K400+ was not well supported by solaar (was recognised but no battery information and no available settings). I then tried installing solaar-git but there was no change.

After removing ~/.config/solaar/config.yaml and reloading, the support in solaar-git is much better (battery information and settings are now present).

I don't know if the config was originally messed up in some way and the original version I had installed should have had full support, but either way this prevents similar issues from persisting between releases.

(I still have the original config file if that would be useful?)
