GROOVY-7933: fix method selection for boolean and char primitives
boolean and char were not factored into the primitive distance tables which
would cause methods with Object to be selected in preference to those
with boolean/char and their respective Wrapper.
Inserted `boolean` and `char` (and their wrappers) in the distance table
and kept all distances the same for the existing classes in the table (adding
boolean and char as the farthest dist from the existing classes).
Had to fix one test because `HashCodeHelper` has overloaded methods and
prior to this change it was selecting the method with `Object` instead of
`boolean`.
