Implement a global.inc to set up important $conf variables like the file path

Uploads are currently broken on provisioned sites, because they try to upload into 'files'

The configurations generated already have a conditional include to load a global.inc, but it is pointing to inside the drupal checkout.

This should be placed in the PROVISION_CONFIG_PATH , so probably config/drupal/global.inc (outside of the web root).

This is what we have in our hm1 global.inc

/**
 * PHP settings:
 *
 * To see what PHP settings are possible, including whether they can
 * be set at runtime (ie., when ini_set() occurs), read the PHP
 * documentation at http://www.php.net/manual/en/ini.php#ini.list
 * and take a look at the .htaccess file to see which non-runtime
 * settings are used there. Settings defined here should not be
 * duplicated there so as to avoid conflict issues.
