Merged with some fixes (no -T, added --on/--off/-1/-0).

Also added a mention of the -C/--locallist option for only listing local
settings.  And added error checking on the set_active() call.

Does this actually yield the expected result for booleans?  IOW, if I
delete all local customizations, does it also change the active boolean
settings to the base policy values?  If not, then the user won't see the
real effect until they next reboot since the kernel will keep preserving
the active boolean settings across reload.

Also, last I tried, policy didn't allow semanage_t to set boolean
values, so attempting to modify booleans using semanage rather than
setsebool fails.  So policy needs to be updated.

And what domain is system-config-selinux running in at present?

system-config-selinux runs in the users context (bin_t).  But it execs
the semanage command.

I have an open bugreport where this actually crashes libsemanage, so I
will check when I work on the bug.
