Bug Description

It would be great to have a way to restrict the values that a config option can take and have the option parser raise a descriptive error when this happens.

This could just be an extra argument to cfg.StrOpt (e.g. cfg.StrOpt('protocol', default='http', allowed=['http', 'https', 'ftp']) ) or a new option type altogether.

Yeah, something like argparse's choices would be nice http://docs.python.org/dev/library/argparse.html#choices
