convert some config callbacks to parse_config_key

These callers can drop some inline pointer arithmetic and
magic offset constants, making them more readable and less
error-prone (those constants had to match the lengths of
strings, but there is no automatic verification of that
fact).

The "ep" pointer (presumably for "end pointer"), which
points to the final key segment of the config variable, is
given the more standard name "key" to describe its function
rather than its derivation.
