Description

sea-orm-cli is generating a type wrongly. When the type should be boolean, it generates the entites as the type i8
That is expected as apparently mariadb stores boolean as integer values inside the database. I wanted to ask if this bug can be fixed, and the cli can produce booleans correctly

Sql statement
 ADD COLUMN `reserved` BOOLEAN NULL

Research direction

Start by tracing how sea-orm-cli maps MariaDB column types while generating entities, using the BOOLEAN column example in the issue as the reproduction case. Add coverage for this schema and verify that generated entities use a boolean type rather than i8.
