This improves the performance of certain queries dramatically,
such as 'count(*)' etc.
Without this PR
```
~ time mc select --query "select count(*) from S3Object" myminio/sjm-airlines/star2000.csv.gz
2173762
real 0m42.464s

With this PR
```
~ time mc select --query "select count(*) from S3Object" myminio/sjm-airlines/star2000.csv.gz
2173762
real 0m17.603s
user 0m0.093s
sys 0m0.008s
```
Almost a 250% improvement in performance. This PR avoids a lot of type
conversions and instead relies on raw sequences of data and interprets
them lazily.

This PR adds two new admin APIs in Minio server and madmin package:
- GetConfigKeys(keys []string) ([]byte, error)
- SetConfigKeys(params map[string]string) (err error)
A key is a path in Minio configuration file, (e.g. notify.webhook.1)
The user will always send a string value when setting it in the config file,
the API will know how to convert the value to the appropriate type. The user
is also able to set a raw json.
Before setting a new config, Minio will validate all fields and try to connect
to notification targets if available.
- Using gjson for constructing xlMetaV1{} in realXLMeta.
- Test for parsing constructing xlMetaV1{} using gjson.
- Changes made since benchmarks showed 30-40% improvement in speed.
- Follow up comments in issue https://github.com/minio/minio/issues/2208
for more details.
- gjson parsing of parts from xl.json for listParts.
- gjson parsing of statInfo from xl.json for getObjectInfo.
- Vendorizing gjson dependency.
