Avoid DUMMY_CONVERSION env var treated as bool in CI
`DUMMY_CONVERSION: True` is treated as a boolean value in YAML[1]. As a
result, during GitHub CI the environment variable setup during tests is
formatted as `DUMMY_CONVERSION=true`.

The value is used[2] in tests and passed as the `condition` to the
`pytest.mark.skipif`[3] decorator. The `skipif` `condition` can be
either a `bool` or `str`. When it is a `str` (our case, as we use
`os.environ.get()`), it is treated as a condition string[4] by pytest.

Since the condition string is `eval()`ed[5] by pytest, trying to
evaluate `true` results in:

> Failed: Error evaluating 'skipif' condition
>     true
> NameError: name 'true' is not defined

To avoid the implicit conversion to a JSON boolean, or marking the
"True" value as a string literal, use the value `1` instead.
