 Similar to #25368, we can once again expand upon which Rust types are safe
 to send over the FFI boundary without
 conversion/serialisation/translation, because Rust's `bool` type and C99's
 `bool` type are directly compatible. (I think this also makes an even
 larger argument moving forward for using `bool`s in C wherever it makes
 sense, since otherwise we need to convert between the libc `uint8_t` type
 and the native `u8` in Rust.)
