Makes sense, as previously discussed.

This does not make sense. GLConfig is meant to hold settings and configuration,
nothing more.

I see the home of this function more in GLFileSystem.py. Maybe in class
GLFileAssistant, maybe in a new class in that same file.

'tests=lib/' should not occur in the scope of mode == 'copy-file'.
But this string is an indicator inside gnulib-tool; users of gnulib-tool
should not be allowed to pass it.
