Summary: PyObCTools.Conversion inserts NSNulls into generated plists

Initial Comment:
Conversion.py's propertyListFromPythonCollection converts 
None into NSNull. However, NSNull isn't a property list 
type, so the resulting property list is invalid for archiving.

The best way to handle None is best defined by the user 
(empty string, empty data, 0, etc) so the best fix is 
probably just to comment out the lines that handle None. 
This makes the conversion helper function convert None.

The lines are the two starting at 46 of PyObjCTools/
Conversion.py,

    elif aPyCollection is None:
        return NSNull.null()
