Description

Hello,

For SAML connections the work around to set the email verified to become true is to set it to a non-empty string (see https://community.auth0.com/t/set-email-verified-to-true-for-saml-based-enterprise-users/62650). The new library with type checking doesn't like this and throws a type exception when pulling data that includes email_verified

Reproduction

1. Create a user in auth0 with email_verified set to a non-empty string
2. In auth0 this is treated as "true"
3. Pull this client info using the library
