This document:
https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/20/docs/specs/jar/jar.html

Seems to point out to other attributes that can be boolean. For each it says that "true" and "false" are the possible values (which makes me think other values aren't possible), and that the case doesn't matter.

Perhaps we should just follow what the code for parsing these boolean standard attributes (`Java-Bean` and `sealed`) does.
