bootconfig: Prohibit re-defining value on same key

Currently, bootconfig adds a new value on the existing key to the tail of an
array. But this looks a bit confusing because an admin can easily rewrite
the original value in the same config file.

This rejects the following value re-definition.

  key = value1
  ...
  key = value2

You should rewrite value1 to value2 in this case.

In both styles, same key words are automatically merged when parsing it
at boot time. So you can append similar trees or key-values.
Note that a sub-key and a value can not co-exist under a parent key.
Same-key Values
---------------
It is prohibited that two or more values or arrays share a same-key.
For example,::
foo = bar, baz
foo = qux # !ERROR! we can not re-define same key
Also, a sub-key and a value can not co-exist under a parent key.
For example, following config is NOT allowed.::
foo = value1
