Fix bug when Column is trying to type cast boolean values to integer.

This can occur if the user is using :integer columns to store boolean
values. Now we are handling the boolean values but it still raises if
the value can't type cast to integer and is not a boolean. See rails#7509.

Fixes rails#8067.
