Title: Openengsb 3255 - EDB supports other types than Strings

http://issues.openengsb.org/jira/browse/OPENENGSB-3255

For now it used only Strings in background which then made problems at checkout of some types. Also it makes it almost impossible to add the OpenEngSBModelTail from the values of the EDB, since we don't know what class the model tail elements have. With this changes, the EDB knows which type is saved and converts the simple types (primitives, primitives wrappers and Date) itself.

For 2.x.y and 2.5.x this issue need to be implemented in a different way, since it contains api breaks.

Documentation will be added when the pull request is ok.
