[conditional] Remove support for bare variables (#74208)
Change:
- Variables used in ``when`` conditionals are no longer parsed and
  attempted to be converted to booleans. All non-empty strings are
  considered true (empty strings, false).

Test Plan:
- Updated existing tests
- Added a bunch of new tests with various kinds of truthy/falsy
  values.

Tickets:
- Fixes #74134

breaking_changes:
- conditionals - ``when`` conditionals no longer automatically parse string booleans such as ``"true"`` and ``"false"`` into actual booleans. Any non-empty string is now considered true. The ``CONDITIONAL_BARE_VARS`` configuration variable no longer has any effect.
