Title: fixes compilation issue with julia function uint8() on Apple

make compilation work with Apple LLVM compiler by having jl_box_int8() and jl_box_uint8() work with full size integers (one register) and forcing the bit cast in C (also generates less assembly code overall!)

this *should* make everything work with the default Apple compiler
