…alues in CLI options
When CLI options defined as boolean are provided with inline values like '--debug=false' or '--dry-run=false', 'node:util.parseArgs' in non-strict mode returns string values ('false' / 'true') rather than booleans. This caused false values to be treated as truthy.
Normalize string boolean values in CLI options.
Closes angular#34199

Code Review
This pull request introduces logic to parse explicit string representations of booleans ('true' and 'false') into actual boolean values within both the architect and schematics CLI parsers, accompanied by comprehensive unit tests. The feedback suggests simplifying this parsing logic in both files by removing the redundant typeof value === 'string' check, as strict equality comparisons with 'true' and 'false' already guarantee the type.
