Only unbox NSNumbers 0, 1 to Bool for objCType 'c'
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
* Previously, initializing JSONValue with NSNumber with value 0 or 1
  would produce JSONValue.boolean. This change updates the behavior to
  only interpret NSNumber as boolean if its objCType is 'c' and its
  value is 0 or 1.
