bool is widely used in the Linux kernel. Certain cases of
parsing_hacks.ml would mislabel bool.

Add bool to the list of known typedefs.

Stats of --parse-c on Linux v5.5-rc4 are as follows:

Before:

  nb good = 18956150,  nb passed = 134062 =========> 0.70% passed

After:

  nb good = 18956150,  nb passed = 134073 =========> 0.70% passed
