qpid-config does not properly set some options if value evaluates to False
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: QPID-3533
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-3533
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: python tools, Tools
    Affects Versions: 0.12
         Environment: Linux C++ broker with python 2.6
            Reporter: Brandon Pedersen
            Priority: Minor


PROBLEM STATEMENT:
Some options with the qpid-config tool ignore options which evaluate to False, 
most  notably a value of 0. In my case I was trying to set the flow-stop-count 
to 0 as described here: 
http://qpid.apache.org/books/0.12/AMQP-Messaging-Broker-CPP-Book/html/ch01s09.html
 to disable the flow control.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
- Add a queue using the following options:
qpid-config add queue myqueue --max-queue-count=5 --limit-policy=flow-to-disk 
--flow-stop-count=0
- Generate at least 5 messages that will go on myqueue

RESULTS:
Generating the 5th message will hang, waiting for the queue count to go less 
than 4

EXPECTED RESULTS:
Messages should continue to flow onto the queue (and be flushed to the disk)

COMMENTS:
The reason this happens is because the flow stop count is never set by 
qpid-config. There are several options that share the same issue in 
qpid-config. I created a patch that fixes this issue for me and will attach it.
