title: "api: add a duk_get_boolean() variant which coerces the target without modifying it"
desc: |-
  In other words, make a copy of the value, boolean coerce it, and return
  the boolean.  The original value in the call stack should not be modified.
  
  This primitive would be closest to how an if-statement behaves in
  Ecmacsript code.  The current duk_get_boolean() does not coerce its
  target, so it can return somewhat unexpected values.
