Subject: StringToBool: only act if the entire string is consumed by strtol()

StringToBool uses strtol() internally to check if the argument is
a number. This function stops when it does not find any more numbers.
So a string like "0ad" (which is a valid packagename) is interpreted
as a "0". The code now checks that the entire string is consumed
not just a part of it. Thanks to Johannes Schauer for raising this
issue.
