Patch

Description of problem:
The value of --plugin-option is set to be of type string when adding the option to the OptionParser. The values are then passed as string to the respective option receivers. This makes it impossible to pass i.e. bind_mount:dirs via --plugin-option, since bind_mount.py expects dirs to be an 2d-iterable (i.e. tuple of tuples), but it will get a string.

One possibly clean fix would be to pass all values of --plugin-option though literal_eval. If literal_eval fails, then it is likely an actual string, and it is kept as such. Otherwise, the string is parsed to a python object.
The only risk is that the user passes an argument which should be a string but also is valid python syntax. To avoid these issues, the user should quote the value, i.e.
--plugin-option="myplugin:key='value'"

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mock-1.1.33-1.fc21.noarch

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to pass --plugin-option="bind_mount:dirs=(('/foo','/bar')) to mock
2. The bind_mount plugin will fail parsing the dirs option

Test with mock-1.2.17-1.el7.noarch.

mock with argument
--plugin-option="bind_mount:dirs=(('/foo','/bar'))

still fails like

$ mock --plugin-option="bind_mount:dirs=(('/public','/tmp/t1'))" --shell
