Subject: [PATCH] Fix specialty keytags showing by default when setting is off
 (#24)

The settings UI and frontend disagreed on the default for
'Show Special Keytags':

- DEFAULT_SHOW_SPECIAL was the string 'true', so on any install
  where the settings form was never saved, get_option('nacc_special',
  self::DEFAULT_SHOW_SPECIAL) fell back to 'true' and specialty tags
  rendered.
- register_settings() registered nacc_special without a 'default',
  so draw_settings() rendered the checkbox unchecked.

Result: the box showed off while the frontend behaved as on.

Fixes:
- Set DEFAULT_SHOW_SPECIAL to boolean false and register
  'default' => false on nacc_special so both code paths agree.
- Normalize the value handed to the JS constructor to a real JSON
  boolean via wp_json_encode( (bool) $args['special'] ), removing the
  stringified '0'/'true' truthiness trap on the JS side.

Bumps plugin version to 6.0.2 and adds a readme.txt changelog entry
(shared with #25/#26).

Closes #24
