Description

I catch myself always having to lookup the overloads for define. What about adding a builder pattern?

ConfigDef def = new ConfigDef()
    .define().name("a").type(Type.INT).defaultValue(5).validator(Range.between(0, 14)).importance(Importance.HIGH).documentation("docs").build()
    .define().name("b").type(Type.LONG).importance(Importance.HIGH).documentation("docs").build()
    .define().name("c").type(Type.STRING).defaultValue("hello").importance(Importance.HIGH).documentation("docs").build()
    .define().name("d").type(Type.LIST).importance(Importance.HIGH).documentation("docs").build()
    .define().name("e").type(Type.DOUBLE).importance(Importance.HIGH).documentation("docs").build()
    .define().name("f").type(Type.CLASS).importance(Importance.HIGH).documentation("docs").build()
    .define().name("g").type(Type.BOOLEAN).importance(Importance.HIGH).documentation("docs").build()
    .define().name("h").type(Type.BOOLEAN).importance(Importance.HIGH).documentation("docs").build()
    .define().name("i").type(Type.BOOLEAN).importance(Importance.HIGH).documentation("docs").build()
    .define().name("j").type(Type.PASSWORD).importance(Importance.HIGH).documentation("docs").build();
