When accessing a nonexistent key on a dict the YamlObject returns an empty element. This element can happily be cast to a string which is unexpected. For example the following statement: yamlDict["nonexistent"].get<string>("default") is expected to return "default" but actually returns "". Fix this by introducing a empty type to distinguish between an empty YamlObject and a YamlObject of type value containing an empty string. For completeness add an isEmpty() function and an explicit cast to bool to be able to test for that type. Extend the tests accordingly.
