- update queries to handle correctly the `before=""` case and RSM order (older to newer)
while having correct order when `max_items` without RSM is used (then order it newer to
older).
- put RSM code path in a separated method for better readability.
- check values of `max_items` and `from_index` and raise exception is they are not
positive
- when using `before` or `after`, check that the item ID used as reference exists, and
raise an exception otherwise.
- updated docstring to reflect the new behaviour.
- update pubsub cache use of `get_items` with RSM, to adapt to new behaviour.

`add_managed_node` now match node when they are exactly the same by default, but if the
new `strict_match` argument is set to `False`, the old behaviour of matching all node
which start with the given `node` argument is used.

This is a huge configuration refactoring.
The configuration system now uses Pydantic settings, with better validation, better
support for environment variables and other goodies.
The main config files now use TOML instead of INI, this allow for better handling of
complex types, notably dict.
Plugins, components and frontends can declare their config settings in a class which will
be imported dynamically.
