[Asterisk-code-review] config: Allow options to register when documentation is unav... (asterisk[master])

[Joshua Colp]

Hello Anonymous Coward #1000019,

I'd like you to reexamine a change.  Please visit

    https://gerrit.asterisk.org/2078

to look at the new patch set (#2).

Change subject: config: Allow options to register when documentation is unavailable.
......................................................................

config: Allow options to register when documentation is unavailable.

The config options framework is strict in that configuration options must
be documented unless XML documentation support is not available. In
practice this is useful as it ensures documentation exists however in
off-nominal cases this can cause strange problems.

If it is expected that a config option has a non-zero or non-empty
default value but the config option documentation is unavailable
this reasonable expectation will not be met. This can cause obscure
crashes and weirdness depending on how the code handles it.

This change tweaks the behavior to ensure that the config option
is still allowed to register, apply default values, and be set when
devmode is not enabled. If devmode is enabled then the option can
NOT be set.

This also does not remove the initial documentation error message that
is output on load when registering the configuration option.
