check-webkit-style should warn when using booleans where enums are better

Cases where bools are used in multi-argument functions are almost always wrong and should be enums instead.

foo(baz, true)

and

void bar(void* ptr, bool baz = true)

are just confusing and check-webkit-style should warn and instruct individuals to fix them with enums.
