John MacFarlane ffc2192caf Simplify/fix reading of --metadata values on command line.
Previously we used HsYAML's decodeStrict to recognize
boolean values (treating everything else as a string).
This caused problems relating to hvr/HsYAML#7.

We now just check for the recognized boolean values
`true|True|TRUE|false|False|FALSE`, and avoid using
HsYAML.

Closes #5177.
