Hi,
I'm trying to refactor a provider I build (for k0s) to be based on the latest version of the native provider boilerplate template. But I'm running into an issue with provider parameters. When I try to test the version I end up with the following error:
```error: pulumi:providers:k0s resource 'myProvider': property noDrain value {true} has a problem: Field 'noDrain' on 'provider.Config' must be a 'bool'; got 'string' instead```
Without explicitly configuring it this already happens through the annotation configuration of the configuration struct:
```a.SetDefault(&c.NoDrain, false, "PULUMI_K0S_NO_DRAIN")```
If I remove the defaults from the configuration struct it stops happening.

For me it looks like that all parameters are assumed to be strings somewhere internally. If I initialize the provider in the tests through the integration server I don't get the error.
You can find the PR <https://github.com/ydkn/pulumi-k0s/pull/10|here> incl. the definition of the provider configuration etc.

Anyone any idea why the data types are getting messed up?

Let me know if this should go to a specific Slack channel.

Thanks,
Flo

FYI: I went with using string parameters for now instead of boolean.
