Closes #4580

* Make yn validator case insensitive, to allow for ``True`` and ``False`` in config files.

* The last version compatible with python '3.6.0' and '3.6.1' is pylint '2.9.3'. We did not
realize that when adding incompatible typing at the time, and all versions since are broken
for this interpreter. 2.12.0 meta-information will permit to download pylint on those
interpreters but the installation will fail and tell you to install '2.9.3' instead.
pylint 2.12.1 will require python >= 3.6.2.

Closes #5171
Follow-up in #5065
