      The user of WiredTiger, e.g., MongoDB should always pass valid config to WiredTiger. If we fail to parse the config in WiredTiger, there is something seriously wrong. Either the persisted config is corrupted or there is something wrong in the higher stacks. Therefore, we should panic instead of continue in __config_next when hitting any config errors.
