Any non-empty string (except "0") is converted to true and any non-zero

If we could get rid of "0" being false, that alone would be a huge
benefit for the language in the long run.
I know why it exists, but I don't think it should. In fact it never
should have existed in the first place.
For me, highlighting all the places where a possibly unintended
conversion to true is happening would make "0" a lot less bad. "0.0"
being silently true while "0" and 0.0 is false seems a bit awkward.
