It seems like this proposed diagnostic and fixit, statistically speaking, is *never* correct.
In the cases where there is a code issue to be corrected, the diagnosable issue really seems to involve dataflow analysis:

"Here is a variable of integral type (not bool), which over its lifetime assumes only the values `0` and `1`. This variable should be declared as type `bool`."
"Here is a function returning integral type (not bool), which returns only the values `0` and `1`. This function should be declared as returning type `bool`."
"Here is a parameter of integral type (not bool), which (via whole-program analysis) assumes only the values `0` and `1`. This parameter should be declared as type `bool`."

This is clearly the wrong correction, don't you think? Should be s/unsigned/bool/, not s/true/1/.

This seems like it might be a real bug: somebody in the past cut-and-pasting the implementation of operator<() into this compare() function. I suspect (but please don't trust me) that the proper fix is s/true/-1/ s/false/1/.

This seems like a "correct" but unwanted adjustment. *Maybe* there's a case for `static_cast<uint64_t>(true)`... but personally I'd leave the `true` alone.

----------------
If I understand correctly, the idiomatic C++11 way to write this code would be

    static constexpr bool IsBottomUp = true;
    static constexpr bool HasReadyFilter = false;

I think the proposed correction is worse than the original, because it makes this look like an integer enumeration.

----------------
Shouldn't the original code already have triggered some warning about explicit comparison with a boolean value?

    if (OptionIter->second) {

doesn't have literally the same semantics, but it's clearly IMHO what was intended.
Also, if `decltype(llvm::StringMap<bool>::iterator{}->second)` is not `bool`, something weird is going on.

This correction is wrong; either `true` should be accepted as a valid value for `LLVMBool`, or `LLVMBool` should be replaced with `bool`.
