Helper method called for cases where non-primitive, boolean-based value is to be deserialized: result of this method will be Boolean, although actual target type may be something different. 
 Note: does NOT dynamically access "empty value" or "null value" of deserializer since those values could be of type other than Boolean. Caller may need to translate from 3 possible result types into appropriately matching output types. 
Params:
p – Underlying parser
ctxt – Deserialization context for accessing configuration
targetType – Actual type that is being deserialized, may be same as handledType but could be AtomicBoolean for example. Used for coercion config access.
