Description

It would be nice to be able to test configuration files/rules file through the unix socket.
Basically, to be able to get the result (output and exitcode) of :

suricata -T -c config_file [-S rule_file]

But through the unix socket.
Software such Scirius could then test rules over the unix socket and not with a local suricata binary.

It is somehow related to #1458

I think this isn't trivial due to how current rule loading code also sets up threads which shouldn't be done for a test mode.
