Cannot deserialize to `HashMap<bool, _>`

[jagill]

JSON objects can only have string keys, although HashMaps can have many types of keys. In the case of i32 keys (eg HashMap<i32, i32>), serde_json coerces the stringified integer key (eg "1") into 1i32. However, that fails in the case of bool keys; it raises an error when trying to coerce "true" or "false" into true or false:

Error("invalid type: string \"false\", expected a boolean", line: 0, column: 0)

I'm assuming the coercion behavior in the bool case should be similar to the i32 case.
