### _convertConfigLinesToArguments(parser, lines) | source code
    Converts configuration file lines of the format:

       myoption 1
       mybooloption False

    to the equivalent command-line arguments for the specified OptionParser.
    For example, the configuration file above would return the argument
    list ['--myoption', '1', '--mybooloption'] if mybooloption has action
    store_false, and ['--myoption', '1'] if mybooloption has action store_true.

    @parameter parser: OptionParser object containing configuration options.
    @type parser: OptionParser
    @parameter lines: List of dictionary object parsed from a configuration file.
                      Each option is expected to have 'type', 'key', 'value' entries.
    @type lines: list of dictionaries.
    @return: List of command-line arguments corresponding to the configuration file.
    @rtype: list of strings
