Mypy Does Not Return Non-Zero Exit Code for Invalid mypy.ini Values Followed by Comments, including 'strict'

[doublethefish]

Bug Report

Description

When using a comment in an mypy.ini file, it interferes with the parsing of boolean values, leading to unintended behavior. Specifically, if a boolean value is followed by a comment, mypy does not return a non-zero exit code, even if the value is invalid. This can lead to unexpected configuration changes and, in the example provided, turns off the 'strict' mode.

To Reproduce

[mypy]
strict = true # this comment turns strict off

Expected Behavior

Mypy should return a non-zero exit code when encountering invalid configuration values, even if they are followed by a comment.

Actual Behavior

Mypy outputs a warning but does not return a non-zero exit code, allowing the invalid configuration to take effect.

mypy.ini: [mypy]: strict: Not a boolean: true # this comment turns strict off
