C/C++ PATCH to implement -Wbool-operation (PR c/77490)

Now that the C++ FE boolean in/decrement changes are in, I can move forwards
with this patch which implements a new warning named -Wbool-operation (better
names?) which warns about nonsensical code such as ~bool, ~(i == 10), or
bool-- (in C).

It could also warn for other operations such as * or / or <<, but I wasn't
sure about those, so this isn't included in this patch. 

Bootstrapped/regtested on x86_64-linux and ppc64-linux, ok for trunk?
