Use config-setup infrastructure to take backup of SONiC configuration (#715)

Used "config-setup backup" command to take a backup copy of current SONiC configuration.

Refer to sonic-net/SONiC#433 and sonic-net/sonic-buildimage#3227 for more information

Added skip_migration option to "sonic_installer install" command to allow user to install an image
with factory default configuration.
