Description of problem:
printconf-tui needs the ability to configure the printer driver for a
print queue that already exists.  hal_lpadmin in the hal-cups-utils
package configures the print queue using the hal backend and then
calls printconf-tui to configure the printer.

As of now the "add-local" command requires a device node but the hal
backend uses hal udi's to identify printers.  It would be nice to be
able to have printconf-tui configure the print driver for an already
existing queue using without changing any of the already existing
values such as the queue name, description and device.  It would be
even nicer if I could send in the hal URI (e.g. hal://<udi>) in loo of
the device and printconf-tui would use that to find which printer to
configure.  Also a return value is needed to signal if the printer has
been detected and configured properly.

configure-local configures a local printer queue
                returns 0 on success and 1 if 
                printer can not be configured
