Description of problem:
It is allowed to set non-numeric values to force_timeout parameter in
sssd.conf.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
sssd-1.9.2-7.el6.x86_64
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set force_timeout = TRUE in DOMAIN Section of sssd.conf file
2. Restart sssd service.
3. Send SIGSTOP to process sssd_be
   # kill -s SIGSTOP <PID>
4. Monitor sssd.log file for the messages.
   # tail -f /var/log/sssd.log
Actual results:
The sssd service restarts successfully and sssd_be gets killed in 60 secs.
Results are similar to the "force_timeout" default behaviour.
Expected results:
An error should be shown while starting or restarting the sssd service.
Non-numeric values shouldn't be allowed while setting force_timeout parameter
in sssd.conf.
