RFR 8200152: KerberosString should use UTF-8 by default

[Roger Riggs]

Hi,

I've seen a variety of interpretations of non-standard input for parsing 
booleans and
it is likely to cause confusion across properties.

I'd prefer that we converge on the interpretation used in the 
Boolean.parseBoolean.
Which uses:  "true".equalsIgnoreCase(s);

Better yet, call Boolean.parseBoolean!  Will be compatible with the 
previous GetBooleanAction().

$.02, Roger
