Support for JS-based config in frontend-platform

[davidjoy]

https://github.com/edx/frontend-platform needs to be updated to allow for JS-based configuration.

This should look something like:

• Packaging the existing process.env configuration into a ProcessEnvConfigService and putting an interface.js abstraction layer around it.
• Create an ImportConfigService (or a better name) which imports configuration from 'env.config', as expected in frontend-build.
• Determine the right rollout strategy which enables backwards compatibility with the existing process.env-based configuration, while allowing MFEs to opt into the JS-based configuration.

@davidjoy is this open for the community to own? or is it something edx is already working on internally?
I ask because I am interested in working on it (given also this has been brought up in the last FEWG #49)
