This PR does some first setup for config files for webevals.
These config files will be provided by a hub admin as part of the dashboard repo, and specifies settings for score computations: what targets to score, what metrics to compute for each target, and evaluation windows to use. Additionally, there is a section with mappings from task id variable value codes (e.g. FIPS codes for locations) to human-readable text, mirroring the setup for predtimechart.
There is a little bit of motivation about the config files in the "Acquiring the score data" section of the planning document for this project (note: link-sharing is set to read-only).
