TemplateGenerator emits TypeError when importing bools that should be strings

This same error affects other resources like troposphere.ecs.Environment https://github.com/cloudtools/troposphere/blob/master/troposphere/ecs.py#L105 where the value being imported can be any type, but should be cast as String. The Json/Yaml marshaller attempts to determine the type of each object when creating the object, and the TemplateGenerator requires them to be passed in a certain way.
