`g_value_get_boolean()` returns `gboolean`, which is actually `int`. Thus

  // ControlValue x;
  auto val = g_value_get_boolean(...);
  x.set(val);

will cause `ControlValue::set<int, ...>(const int&)` to be called, which
will save the value as `ControlTypeInteger32`, not `ControlTypeBoolean`.

Then, if something tries to retrieve the boolean value, it will run into an
assertion failure:

  Assertion `type_ == details::control_type<std::remove_cv_t<T>>::value' failed.

in `ControlValue::set()`.

Fix this by using the appropriately typed `Control<>` object when setting
the value in the `ControlList` as this ensures that the value will be
converted to the actual type of the control.

There is a simpler fix to this issue as well:

You fixed the bug even before I had a chance to look at the bug report.
Kudos !

Is this reviewing the simple fix, or the fix below?

If there's a simpler fix - what's the rationale for the longer fix
below?


I don't mind which one is merged, they both have lots of templating
magic which makes this hard to review, but fixing the bug is nice ;-)

For which ever of these approaches is desired/appropriate:
