bug fix in the config readers: mixing with the init section should affect only own init options (from init section only bypass default section);

the situation details:
  value of "_daemon" from default section "default" (with init section) falsely overwrites it from definition section "test" -
  the resulting value of "_daemon" should be "test" in all 3 resulting failregex's (as specified in test.local),
  fixed and covered now;
additionally more complex cases covered also (all filter parameters in jail via "%(known/...)s", dynamical interpolation across all, etc);
