Fix TypeError

in Datadog SDK

Solution

TypeError errors in the datadog-sdk often arise from inconsistencies in expected data types, especially booleans, when setting configuration options like `DD_PROFILING_ENABLED`. To resolve this, ensure environment variables meant to represent booleans (True/False) are explicitly parsed as booleans before being used by the Datadog SDK. Specifically, check if `os.environ.get('DD_PROFILING_ENABLED')` is interpreted as a string instead of a boolean; if so, use code like `DD_PROFILING_ENABLED = os.environ.get('DD_PROFILING_ENABLED', 'false').lower() == 'true'` to cast the environment variable value to a proper boolean within your application.
