Description:
------------
When I create a checkbox field using the HTML_QuickForm::createElement this one comes with attribute value set to 1 and I need to change that value but in the constructor of the checkbox (HTML_QuickForm_checkbox) has a code that update the attribute value only. I think that all attributes need to be updated.

Reproduce code:
---------------
My code:

$res =& $db->query(" select idModule, name from module where status='1' order by name ");
while($res->fetchInto($row)) {
$formChecks[] = &HTML_QuickForm::createElement('checkbox', 'perm[]', null, $row['name'], array('value'=>$row['idModule']));
}
$form->addGroup($formChecks, null, null, "<br>\n");

Code where I think the error is in the constructor of HTML_QuickForm_checkbox:

$this->updateAttributes(array('value'=>1));

Code I think that resolv the problem:

$this->updateAttributes($attributes);

Expected result:
----------------
Checkboxes with defined values.

Actual result:
--------------
Checkboxes with value attribute equal 1

I'm also using this class and can confirm that wathever you use (constructor parameter $elementLabel, array('value'=>[myValue]) in constructor parameter $attributes, or setValue function), you always get a checkbox with a value of 1

Changing the line in the constructor for checkbox from

$this->updateAttributes(array('value'=>1));

to

if (!isset($attributes['value']))
$this->updateAttributes(array('value'=>1));

allows the value of the checkbox to be set in the attribute field with the the argument 'value'=>'arbitrary value'
