chore: configure the 'maintenanceMode' flag to accept variants (#10956)

Configure the `maintenanceMode` flag type to be `boolean | Variant` and
update the env parsing to allow passing strings from the env.

The [first
impl](https://github.com/Unleash/unleash/pull/10956/commits/3bbfc9e68)
required you to set a full, variant -- stringified as json -- in the
env, but this is both error-prone and not very user friendly.
Additionally, the name of the variant isn't really important, and if
you're passing a string, you probably want it to be true.

As such, the [second
impl](https://github.com/Unleash/unleash/pull/10956/commits/c38357baa)
updates the env parsing to read the full string value into a
pre-formatted variant if it's not parseable as a boolean.

As such, to set a custom message, you can now do:

```sh
UNLEASH_EXPERIMENTAL_MAINTENANCE_MODE='Custom message from plain env var string' yarn dev
```

With the [updates to the
UI](https://github.com/Unleash/unleash/pull/10961), it'll look a little
something like this:

/>

## Rationale

This allows locking down Unleash instances with a custom message.
Previously, you'd have to use both maintenance mode and a custom banner
for this, but that requires more work to set properly and it shows two
banners, when you really only want the one.
