conf: turn config_get_path() into config_dup_path()

config_get_path() was somewhat flawed, because it pretended to be a
function, when it really had a side effect.  The second flaw was that
it did not return the parser error, instead it aborted the whole
process, which is bad style.  The new function returns a duplicated
(modified) string that must be freed by the caller, and returns a
GError on failure.
