I wonder if it would make sense to mark everything in ${sysconfdir} and
${sysconfdir}/default (but probably not other subdirs) as a conffile
automatically. I don't think there are many/any files in there that
wouldn't want conffile treatment.

Those DISTRO overrides look a bit weird too. I wonder if the slugos and
nylon ones ought really to be "CONFFILES_${PN}_prepend_DISTRO" or
something. The intent of the micro one is fairly clear although I can't
immediately think why this would be useful given that micro doesn't use
O_P_M.
