Calling $mdDialog.hide with an empty string resolves to the string 'true'

Problem at line:

material/src/core/services/interimElement/interimElement.js

Line 301 in 6fd31c9

.remove(reason || SHOW_CLOSED, false)

If 'reason' (which is the value returned by the dialog) is empty, the expression remove(reason || SHOW_CLOSED, false) passes SHOW_CLOSED (='true') to the caller.

@ThomasBurleson Looks like this came from your batch of dialog changes.

It also resolves to boolean true if you call hide() with a boolean false as in $mdDialog.hide(false). My current workaround is passing boolean values as strings, e.g. $mdDialog.hide('false').
