Boolean fields don't work when used as views filters

Problem/Motivation

When using a view to display the output of an search_api_index, for example to create an overview page with several filters on it. Boolean fields are queried using 1 or 0 instead of 'true' or 'false'.

Meilisearch stores booleans as lowercase string (see https://www.meilisearch.com/docs/learn/engine/datatypes#boolean)

Steps to reproduce

Create a index and store a boolean field on that index, as type 'boolean'
Create a view for that index, and filter on that boolean field.

The filter won't work, and in worse case scenario your view will remain empty.

Proposed resolution

A small change in Drupal\search_api_meilisearch\Parser\ScalarValueParser.php that changes the value into 'true' or 'false' will fix this issue.
