[PATCH 4/7] tests: improve tshark boolean output support

[Benjamin Berg]

From: Benjamin Berg <benjamin.berg at intel.com>

Newer tshark versions are exporting some values as boolean with a
False/True string value. Add a helper that accepts an integer of any
base and also a "True"/"False" string.

Update various places to use the new helper.

Fixes: bf67d09e587a ("tests: Handle newer tshark version returning boolean values")
