Add "ignore-case" and "partials" config options.

Also add new command "gocode options" which prints config options in an
extended form (unlike "gocode set").

 ### Debugging
 
 If something went wrong, the first thing you may want to do is manually start the gocode daemon with a debug mode enabled and in a separate terminal window. It will show you all the stack traces, panics if any and additional info about autocompletion requests. Shutdown the daemon if it was already started and run a new one explicitly with a debug mode enabled:
