I'm wondering whether we should actually go the opposite way and say
that c.h's "bool" definition should be backend only, and that in
frontend code we should define a PG_bool type or something of that ilk
for when we want "PG's 1-byte bool" and otherwise let the platform
define "bool" however it wants.

And we certainly shouldn't be defining "bool" in something that's going
to be included in the user's code the way that ecpglib.h is.
