[webkit-efl] Why don't we use Eina_Bool in unit test when testing public APIs ?

Yes, I also think there is no strong rule for this. I think we're able to
decide this. Nevertheless, I still think Eina_Bool is reasonable from the
API test point.
In addition, it looks GTK port also use gboolean for their unit test.
 Anyway, if objection is more than agreement by tomorrow, let's decide to
use standard boolean in unit test.

Cheers,
Gyuyoung.
