Add configuration file for netdata-updater.sh. (#15149)
* Add config file for netdata-updater script. Currently only has an option to control maximal delay when adding random jitter while updating. Longer-term, this will be used to support a number of other configuration options without requiring the user to handle special arguments for the script. * Better handle jitter config option. * Fix DEB package builds. * Properly mark updater config as conffile in RPM spec file. * Switch to a proper config file in the repo. * Add documentation about the new config file.
