templater: make pad() evaluate boolean argument (BC)

Otherwise it would crash if template expression was passed.

This patch unifies the way how boolean expression is evaluated, which involves
BC. Before "if(true)" and "pad(..., 'false')" were False, which are now True
since they are boolean literal and non-empty string respectively.

"func is runsymbol" is the same hack as evalstringliteral(), which is needed
for label() to take color literals.

# The test-repo is a live hg repository which may have evolution
# markers created, e.g. when a ~/.hgrc enabled evolution.
#
# Tests are run using a custom HGRCPATH, which do not
# enable evolution markers by default.
#
# If test-repo includes evolution markers, and we do not
# enable evolution markers, hg will occasionally complain
# when it notices them, which disrupts tests resulting in
# sporadic failures.
#
# Since we aren't performing any write operations on the
# test-repo, there's no harm in telling hg that we support
# evolution markers, which is what the following lines
# for the hgrc file do:
cat >> $HGRCPATH << EOF
[experimental]
evolution=createmarkers
EOF
