Remarks
Implements the getBoolean method as per the specification in Preferences#getBoolean(String,boolean).
This implementation invokes #get(String,String) <tt>get(key, null)</tt>. If the return value is non-null, it is compared with "true" using String#equalsIgnoreCase(String). If the comparison returns true, this invocation returns true. Otherwise, the original return value is compared with "false", again using String#equalsIgnoreCase(String). If the comparison returns true, this invocation returns false. Otherwise, this invocation returns def.
