Description

traffic_ctl splits record lookups between config and metric subcommands. However it doesn't know what kind of record gets returned so it can confusingly return a metric when asked for a config record.

We should return the record the (class) when asked so that we can filter appropriately. This can also allow the --records option to appropriately format config records as LOCAL.
