Added config update to add new parameters to config. Retained ability…

… to run the run_config.json file if there are no CLI arguments.

Retained ability to run the run_config.json file if there are no CLI arguments.

Will eventually deprecate run_config in favor of the configs directory, but don't want to mess up existing configs until they have time to migrate.

Un-ignored configs.  Would like to build a set of user configs through PRs to see variety.  Add gallery directory for those with submit configs for people to see examples.  All PRs for configs are expected to have identically named files (with some suffix for multiple) to show example images.
