Objective (enhancement)

DBObject provides helpers like Set(), SetIfNul(), and Copy(), but misses CopyIfNull(). CopyIfNull() is documented and recommended by Combodo in its partners documentation, and is really useful for its purpose. Documentation states a PR to add this helper would be welcomed, so here it is.

Proposed solution (bug and enhancement)

Add the missing helper method in iTop, as it is documented.
