Bolgia an helper module for the config hell. It recursively clones mixes updates and improves configuration objects/hashes with nested properties. '..non ragioniam di lor ma guarda e passa..'

/*
 * Query String 
 * An Edge Case
 *
 * Note: bug in node-querystring module:
 * - it doesn't stringify correctly a nested
 *   field null value,
 *   it produces:
 *      'h[0]=0&0=&h[1][1]=1'
 *   should be:
 *      'h[0]=0&h[1][0]=&h[1][1]=1'
