Add configuration keys for printing; rework configuration key naming.

+	Valid fields for the tables are:

+	- type: used for basic type checking, one of bool, int, float or string
+	- description: A descriptive text usable by API clients
+	- min, max, regex: optional constraints (min and max constrain value for numbers, or length for strings)
 	
---NOTE: proposed notation for baseline configuration (containing defaults as well as type and constraint information)
+	NOTE that the all-caps definitions will be changed into configuration keys, or moved to a different location
---the table name is the configuration key; min, max and regex are all optional; type is one of: {bool, int, float, string}
