Allow EdgeCmd to set null or empty string parameter values

As per KB000042993, setting parameters with EdgeCmd that are <null> or "" (empty string) is not possible. Instead the JSON configuration file must be created and used in place.

It would be more intuitive if executing commands such as:

edgecmd set datasource -cid opcua1 -streamIdPrefix ""

or

edgecmd set datasource -cid opcua1 -streamIdPrefix <null>

    Thank you for the feedback. EdgeCmd Utility is typically used to set specific parameters on a line-by-line basis, unless you have a configuration file curated and want to use that to pull in information. For properties like "streamIdPrefix", it is already an optional parameter that defaults to "null" in the adapter. Are there other properties or facets that do not default to "null" that would need special handling? I'd like to understand the use case better to provide better input.
