[MINOR] cfgparse: set backends to "balance roundrobin" by default
When a backend has no LB algo specified and is not in dispatch, proxy
nor transparent mode, use "balance roundrobin" by default instead of
complaining. This will be particularly useful with stats and redirects.

- The definition of the load balancing algorithm is mandatory for a backend
- and limited to one per backend.
+ The load balancing algorithm of a backend is set to roundrobin when no other
+ algorithm, mode nor option have been set. The algorithm may only be set once
+ for each backend.
Examples :
balance roundrobin
