Honestly, I think I would be happy with a four-byte bool, in almost
all circumstances.

For those rare cases where space is an issue, there could be a second
type, bool8, implicitly castable to and from bool, but you wouldn't
use that by default; you'd only use it in structs where you needed to
pack stuff tight.
