Subject: Direct converting numeric types to bool
Attached patch allow direct convertion of numeric types to bool like
integer::bool.
Supported types:
- smallint;
- bigint;
- real;
- double precision;
- decimal(numeric).
This functionality is helped with migration from Oracle.

Hello!
What prevent us from:
postgres=# select 1::bigint::int::boolean;
bool
------
t
(1 row)
It is just one additional casting and required no additional patching
