Title: [Schema] Allow boolean default values

In the schema, it is possible to add so-called "boolean" columns (which are essential smallints or whatnot). As they are called "boolean", I think it should be possible to specify a boolean default value in the `default()` helper - makes sense, no?

As the boolean value `false` will automatically be converted to an empty string (and not a 0) when automatically casted by PHP, this currently breaks the generated SQL.
