lvmconfig: add --sinceversion for --type new

Just for convenience to display all new configuration settings
introduced since given version (before, there was only --atversion
to display settings introduced in concrete version).

For example:
	$ lvmconfig --type new --sinceversion 2.2.120
	allocation {
		# cache_mode="writethrough"
		# cache_settings {
		# }
	}
	global {
		use_lvmlockd=0
		# lvmlockd_lock_retries=3
		# sanlock_lv_extend=256
		use_lvmpolld=1
	}
	activation {
	}
	# report {
		# compact_output_cols=""
		# time_format="%Y-%m-%d %T %z"
	# }
	local {
		# host_id=0
	}
