/**
 * parseHuman()
 *
 * Convert a string that was entered by a human into a value of the appropriate type.
 * By default, parse numbers and booleans-- but otherwise leave it as a string.
 *
 * On the other hand, if the optional `expectedTypeSchema` is provided, use it to make a better guess:
 *   • If the type schema is expecting a string, number, or boolean, then loose validation (`rttc.validate()`)
 *     will be performed and the potentially-coerced result will be returned.
 *   • If the type schema is expecting a function, then if `unsafeMode` is enabled, the human string will be hydrated
 *     as a JavaScript function.  Otherwise, if `unsafeMode` is false, an error will be thrown.
 *   • Finally, if the type schema is expecting a dictionary, array, JSON, or any ref, then interpret the human string
 *     as JSON (using rttc.parse(), with respect for `unsafeMode` re hydrating nested functions).  If the string cannot
 *     be parsed as JSON, an error is thrown.  But if the rttc.parse() is successful, the result is then validated against
 *     the type schema (using RTTC loose validation).  If _that_ doesn't throw an error, then the result is returned.
 *
 * @param  {String} humanString
 * @param  {*} expectedTypeSchema  [optional]
 * @param  {Boolean} unsafeMode  - enable to use `eval` to hydrate stringified functions based on `expectedTypeSchema` (this is not safe to use on user-provided input and so is disabled by default)
 * @return {*}
