Better handle configuration unbinding
-------------------------------------

                 Key: FELIX-3028
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-3028
             Project: Felix
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Web Console
    Affects Versions: webconsole-3.1.8
            Reporter: Felix Meschberger
            Assignee: Felix Meschberger
             Fix For: webconsole-3.1.10


Unbinding of configuration in the ConfigManager class of the Web Console has 
some issues:

(1) If not configuration exists for a provided PID when unbinding is requested, 
a NullPointerException is thrown because the config variable is not null-checked

(2) Apache Felix Configuration Admin 1.2.8 sets and persists the static bundle 
location with the Configuration.setBundleLocation call. On the other hand 
internally a dynamic location is maintained if configuration is assigned to a 
ManagedService[Factory]. If the static location is cleared, the dynamic 
location is still set and calling Configuration.getBundleLocation still returns 
that dynamically assigned value. With a work around we can force the dynamic 
bundle location to also be cleared: If the bundle location is not null after 
setBundleLocation(null), we do setBundleLocation(non-null); 
setBundleLocation(null). The first call clears the dynamic bundle location 
while setting the static location to some non-null value. The second call then 
resets the static location back to null.

This second issue will probably be solved once the R4.3 Configuration Admin 
specification is publiziced and implemented, which handles bundle location 
setup in a more controlled manner.
