    Convert built-in types when passed as strings

    If on a service exposed with some arguments with a built-in type among
    int, long, bool or float a request is made passing a JSON with string
    values instead of the intended type, the called function would have
    strings as parameters instead of the expected types. This also means
    that invalid strings would still be passed without error, leading to
    unexpected failures. This patch tries to convert the string to the
    intended type before failing with an InvalidInput exception if the
    string can't be converted. This is to try and be as nice as possible
    with whatever input is thrown at wsme.
