  • SR-72 NSNumber is missing much parity

Issue Description:

Or, CFBooleanRef cannot be used as an NSNumber.

CFNumber has no type for bool specifically, instead, it stores them as a char type. Normally, in ObjC Foundation, you would use the constants kCFBooleanTrue and kCFBooleanFalse to represent boolean values explicitly. However, if you try to cast either of those values to NSNumber with SwiftFoundation (i.e. unsafeBitCast(kCFBooleanFalse, NSNumber.self)), it creates an invalid object.
