Add config marshaler.

[jefchien]

Description:
Add Marshal function to confmap. Update types implementing encoding.TextUnmarshaler to implement encoding.TextMarshaler as well. Add a mapstructure encoder that encodes the config provided using the existing mapstructure tags.

Link to tracking Issue: #5418

Testing: Added unit test to validate the unmarshal/marshal cycle.

Forgot to press submit, sorry.

@bogdandrutu PTAL when you get the chance. Refactored the marshaler to be more similar to the unmarshaler.

Changed the Marshallable interface to take in a confmap.Conf. Added a function on the confmap.Conf that uses the encoder and uses koanf.Merge to "marshal" it into the confmap.Conf.

[bogdandrutu]

Sorry for the delay, I am all focus on this PR now :)

[bogdandrutu]

Please explain why the Encoder is still needed.

[jefchien]

The Encoder handles all of the reflection needed to respect the mapstructure tags and is used by confmap to marshal. Without it, the marshal/unmarshal cycle would break and the configs being generated would be invalid.

Then the dependency graph is totally unexpected. Move that to confmap/internal/mapstructure if needed.

Moved under confmap/internal/mapstructure. The old path was a holdover from the initial implementation where the confmap didn't handle the marshalling.
