r17888 sets the values of the instruments with the widget values. This forces all values become the database values unless the database instrument is not available to the Leginon session, in which case None is given. At least it is consistent so the users will know it.
This change are applied to 2.2 as r17889 and to 2.2-redux as r17890

Instrument in settings are typically shown as the one last loaded but GetValue of the widget gives what is last saved in the database. This is because Loading instrument often is delayed so that the widget was already set.
This causes a confusion since we will see the last loaded instrument selected but when we close the settings dialog and collect the reference image, they would be of the instrument in the database since the instrument are not set when the dialog is closed but are set when the selector choice is changed.
This problem was not obvious until we start having multiple camera on the same scope and different tem classes set for regular TEM vs EFTEM.
