- Added warning if boolean options aren't 0,1,yes,no,true,false
- `as_link` and `digikey_link`: avoid writing "False" boolean, which
then is loaded as "False" string. Now using '' which is equivalent
to False. (bool('') -> False). Introduced by me on
SchrodingersGat#112 and SchrodingersGat#114.
- Put all SECTION_GENERAL options inside the already existing if.
- `backup` also made to default to '' instead of False for coherence.
- `hide_headers` and `hide_pcb_info` now support the same options as
other booleans. Also write them as '0', not 'False' for coherence
with all the other booleans.
- `board_variant` write as a string, not an array (bizarre
['default']" in created *bom.ini*)
- Add a checkStr method, to make it similar to checkInt and
checkOption. Making the general options much more compact in the
code.
- `output_file_name` and `variant_file_name_format` now use a more
general fallback mechanism (fallback option is documented only for
Python 3). Better than what I did in SchrodingersGat#121.

Description
Digi-Key is one of the most complete electronic parts providers. Is often used as a reference.
If you have a field containing the Digi-Key part number you can make its column to contain links to the Digi-Key web page for this component.
How to use
Define the
digikey_linkoption in the configuration file (i.e.bom.ini).The value for this option is the column you want to convert into a link to the Digi-Key.
Note that this field must be a valid Digi-Key part number.
Example:
This will make entries in the column
digikey#(Digi-Key part number) links to the component's web page.You can specify more than one fiel name using tab (ASCII 9) as separator:
