[chirp_devel] RadioSettings when used within mem.extra

[Kosta Arvanitis]

Memory extra settings currently only appears to
support RadioSettingValueBoolean and RadioSettingValueList; the behaviour
when any other type is provided is to simply ignore it.  It probably
wouldn't be difficult to add support for additional types such
as RadioSettingValueInteger given that the IntChoiceEditor is already
defined (although never instantiated).  I have no context as to the history
as to why this is the case, but should be easy to implement and test.
