+Robust shim for project configuration.
+
+This file attempts to locate a real configuration module named either
+- a package module at `config/config.py` (importable as `config.config`), or
+- a standalone `config.py` file elsewhere on `sys.path`.
+
+It then imports that module and re-exports its public names so existing
+`import config` usages continue to work regardless of whether the
+configuration was moved into a `config/` directory or left as a file.
