Blackboard precondition decorator throws std::invalid_argument #16

Hi,
It seems there's an issue with the BlackboardPreconditionNode decorator, or it may be a misunderstanding on my part on how it's supposed to work. Setting the "expected" field with the wildcard value "*" throws a std::invalid_argument from std::stod. I went ahead and check what's going on, and the problem seems to come from how the checks are arranged in the tick() function of the decorator:

        if (blackboard() &&                     //blackboard not null
            getParam("key", key) &&             // parameter key provided
            getParam("expected", expected) &&   // parameter expected provided
            blackboard()->get(key, value) &&    // value found in blackboard
            (value == expected ||
             initializationParameters().at("expected") == "*"))   // is expected value or "*"
        {
            return child_node_->executeTick();
        }
        else
        {
            return NodeStatus::FAILURE;
        }

The getParam("expected", expected) gets called even if the value is "*" and it ends up calling convertFromString<double>("*") in tree_node.h.
Rearranging the conditions a bit fixes this. Something like this:

        if (blackboard() && getParam("key", key) && blackboard()->get(key, value))
        {
            if (initializationParameters().at("expected") == "*" || (getParam("expected", expected) && value == expected))
            {
                return child_node_->executeTick();
            }
        }
        return NodeStatus::FAILURE;
