    test: make enforce_type=True in CONF.set_override
    
    Each config option has limitation for type and value.
    In production code, oslo.conf can ensure user's input
    is valid, but in unit test, test methods can pass if
    we use method CONF.set_override without parameter
    enforce_type=True even we pass wrong type or wrong
    value to config option. This commit makes sure calling
    method CONF.set_override with enforce_type=True

Bug description:
  1. Problems :
     oslo_config provides method CONF.set_override[1] , developers usually use it to change config option's value in tests. That's convenient .
     By default  parameter enforce_type=False,  it doesn't check any type or value of override. If set enforce_type=True , will check parameter
     override's type and value.  In production code(running time code),  oslo_config  always checks  config option's value.
     In short, we test and run code in different ways. so there's  gap:  config option with wrong type or invalid value can pass tests when
     parameter enforce_type = False in consuming projects.  that means some invalid or wrong tests are in our code base.

     [1]
  https://github.com/openstack/oslo.config/blob/master/oslo_config/cfg.py#L2173

  2. Proposal
     1) Fix violations when enforce_type=True in each project.

    2) Make method CONF.set_override with  enforce_type=True by default
  in oslo_config

   You can find more details and comments  in
  https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/enforce_type_true_by_default

  3. How to find violations in your projects.

     1. Run tox -e py27

     2. then modify oslo.config with enforce_type=True
        cd .tox/py27/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/oslo_config
        edit cfg.py with enforce_type=True

  -    def set_override(self, name, override, group=None, enforce_type=False):
  +    def set_override(self, name, override, group=None, enforce_type=True):

    3. Run tox -e py27 again, you will find violations.
