Subject: [PATCH] get_config / unit tests MDL-24977 get_config('a_plugin');
 should return something false when there is no config. It was always casting
 the result to an object, even when it was an empty array. I changed it to
 return null in this case. So that if (get_config('a_plugin')) { /* Do
 something relying on the pugin having config */ ) works.
