Alter documentation of boolean type, add example. Someone figured that it
wasn't clear that the "boolean type" was actually called "boolean". Add
tip about "casting" booleans using CASE.

Spell check whole file.

Re: pgsql/doc/src/sgml datatype.sgml

I have boolean listed as BOOL in one of the tables in my book.
Confusing.
